Thank you for such a clear analysis of Sonny Rollins’ Blue 7. I’ve listened to it for years, since it first came out (I’m in my mid 70s) and never heard what you’ve opened my ears to.
Awesome! Glad it was helpful! 😎
I've been playing or I should say trying to play along with this wonderful solo for years. Thanks so much for sharing this, god bless Sonny Rollins.
👍
What a Sonny Sunday... that Bonus Phrase was so tasty, cool and laid back, it almost sounded like it could be a head to its own tune...
Thanks! 🙏
Hey thanks for this.
No problem!
the effortless genius of sonny rollins...amazing
Absolutely
Thanks! This has always been one of my all time favorites. Great analysis!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for this. It brings back so many memories as my first sax teacher also transcribed this but I never got past the head. Must be cool for your son to be called Sonny Rollins Anderson.
Thanks! 🙏
Thanks Jamie for your analysis. Sonny Rollins is great and Blue Seven too. God Bless Sonny and jazz music.
🙏
Sonny Rollins is just a master saxophonist. He is the GOAT. There is no debate!
👍
Love the Sonny Rollins sound wowza!!
Thanks! 🙏
So cool!!! Thanks Jamie!
🙏
Glad to have found your channel Jamie....it stands out for me because there's not many others like it on TH-cam and when I noticed the subject was the great Sonny Rollins I simply had to investigate further! Really interesting & informative thanks...
Thanks 🙏
How sweet you the latest version of Sonny Rollins
You got a new saxophone
No, this is the backup YTS 23
Sound just as good as the MK6 but I forgot you just that good anyways on any sax.
Great analysis. Delayed me going to bed but had to watch.
Thanks! 🙏
Thank you for this. Your enthusiasm for it is infectious. Now time to check some Ronnie Maulins hah ha!!
Enjoy!
Beautiful! I love the faces you make when listening to this solo. Bob Reynolds just did an analysis of a Chris Potter solo - and Scott Paddock just did one of David Sanborn. The facial expressions and body language actually help to understand the music better.
🧐
First! Always wanted to do it lol:) Seriously, even though I do not play Sax anymore as my neighbours would complain I enjoy your craft and talent, Sir!
Thanks! 🙏
Jamie sos un genio, saludos desde Lanús!

Thanks! 🙏
Fantastic Jamie, which horn are you playing now? regards from Chile :D
Just playing my spare Yamaha 23 while my mkVI was being overhauled.
Thanks for the deconstruction of this quirky and brilliant solo. I've tried this, and have a question about hitting that high F#. I can make it crack like that, but I would love to be able to play that note with a clear and full sound when I do my technical exercises. I use a forked F with side E and have to add the f key in order to tune it up. But it would never pass the test of scrutiny, including my own. Any suggestions?
For high F# on tenor you could try 1-3 / 1-Eb?
Awesome -- one of my favourite tunes from one of my favourite albums. Looking forward to the analysis!
Thanks! 🙏
Benny Golson the other survivor from the famous photo. How about doing his solo from Moanin (Art Blakey). The perfect solo - Magic.
About two years ago - th-cam.com/video/79Z-nXGuKog/w-d-xo.html
Great video, great solo! Question though....when you say he's outlining the changes and use the #11 as the example... how is that outlining? Its not a chord tone or a diatonic chord tone. Is it because its an altered dominant ? Being non chord tone and non diatonic, are you saying it outlines the outsideness (new word) of the chord?
Interesting point - I wasn’t thinking about it that deeply I don’t think. The chord is a dominant #11 chord and he plays the #11. That’s about it! I agree it’s not what you’d typically describe as a chord tone in the strict sense of the term, yes. Thanks for commenting.
I knew were not on you mark 6 last time and this time you are on another horn and it turns out to be Yamaha.
I like the sound you get on it. What model ? Enjoy your commentary on this solo very much! I have to say again-that Yamaha has a lot of depth and character on this solo.

@@GetYourSaxTogether Far out! Will you stay on that?
@@bobblues1158 absolutely not! 🤣
I got to ask Jamie, maybe I missed something but did you get a new tenor? This one looks much shinier than you're six. I remember you tested out some horns but don't remember if you opted to get a new one. And thanks for all the great information
No, this is the backup YTS 23
Is that your old Selmer?
No, its the backup Yamaha.
Sonny Sonny?
👍
I just listened to a 10h European podcast radio show on Sonny Rollins (yes, 10x 1h, covering 1951-2001 !!!). My opinion of Rollins is that it seems very overrated to me. First of all as a player, he does not seem to me better than Johnny Griffin, Stitt, Roland Kirk, Phil Woods, Lateef ... but enjoys a much more important reputation ... and unjustified in my opinion. Ok he plays well, but not better than the musicians I mentioned. In terms of composition, he did not compose anything, everyone knows that St Thomas is a Caribbean folklore already recorded by Randy Weston in 1955 under the title Fire Down There. His other compositions from the 50s ... well, Oleo, Airegin etc ... this can in no way be compared to the compositions of Trane, Bird, Monk or Shorter ... also, his playing and his sound are terribly degraded after 1966 (36 years). It seems that he was traumatized by the arrival of Ornette, Trane, Ayler ... In the 60's he tried to be more free than Ayler, more calypso / blues than Ornette, and more mystical than Trane, but he didn't. did not succeed. Then in the 70s / 80s he tried to be funky, disco ... with really ridiculous and cheesy results ... Did he want to be funkier than James Brown himself? Also, in the radio show they say that he was paid current $ 300,000 for himself to record the Nucleus album (so listen to the result !!!!), and that, for his concerts, his financial claims were unrealistic, only the big festivals could afford it. He played with the Stones but didn't want to go on tour with them because, according to Jagger himself, he wanted too much money! I mean, I'm not making anything up here. In my opinion, he should have remained what he was before, a disciple of Bird at the Tenor, and quit at the age of 40 to leave a quality job, and without trying to follow fashion.
Thank you for not insulting me because I have documented myself on Rollins and I like to have constructive discussions without being attacked on my person.
I’m certainly not gonna attack you my friend! You’ve laid out your argument and your opinions clearly and at length. It would be quite a boring world if we all thought the same! Thanks for commenting, and I’m sure Sonny would appreciate the time and thought you put into this epic argument, if for no other reason, you’ve obviously taken the time to listen to his whole catalog!
Your instrument doesn't do this solo any justice, sounded harsh on the ears compared to that smooth flowing mellow tone of Sonny's Sax.
Plastic reed maybe?
