+korniyuk Thanks so much for your kind words. I played that with a heavy heart and wanted to stay true to the song out of respect. I truly appreciate you taking the time to listen
@@JamesEGreen i just picked up my sax for the first time in almost 20 yrs this year and was looking for things to play and came across this absolute GEM of a piece. Great job. Absolutely fantastic
An amazing rendition of an amazing composition. This is my favorite of The Purple One's song. You have exceeded expectations, yet again. Thank you for this performance. You have a God given gift. Be as blessed, today and always, as you bless your audience with each video! =)
Thanks!! This sax here is a blessing but I often play on a Selmer signet (30+ years old) and the mouth piece is Selmer C-star (80) ... also 30+ years old :-)
Hey James, this is really great and I have something to ask. My friend lost her husband recently and wants to play this at his funeral. Would you grant you permission for this please?
I transcribed the melody while listening to both Prince and Sinead O'connor. If I recall, the backing track I purchased from iTunes??search: Nothing Compares 2 U (Originally Performed by Sinéad O'connor) [Piano Instrumental Backing Version]. I hope this helps
