    Answers to some FAQ:
    I'm playing a vintage (early 60's) Selmer tenor saxophone.
    Mouthpiece is a Guardala Michael Brecker (original model)
    Reed is a Vandoren Java (green box) #3

    You ARE the string in the yo yo. That is a compliment. You are not a yo yo. Groove mixed with 440 AC. Making sparks in my mind.

  • @saxjohnny
    @saxjohnny  11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hey thanks, side palm key (D) with 2nd and 3rd fingers...like a G but without the index finger. Another one that works is the index finger on the very top key which is what I think I did there. but you need to add some bottom notes with the right hand to sharpen it up a little as needed. With altissimo that high I find there is usually more than one way to skin that cat!

    Absolutely amazing sound !!!
    How do you generate that deep fuzzy resonating sound at 2:49 (the first sound righ
    after the pinky "vibrato").
    Its just by growling ?
    Thanks in advance !

  • @PaulLowndes1
    @PaulLowndes1 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    H Johnny. I bought your Pick Up The Pieces package (sheet music and backing tracks) from your website using paypal. Unfortunately it didn't go well. I right clicked the links as instructed but there was no option to save the files. So I joined your forum to leave you a note. Which sent me 2 emails. One of the emails went straight to spam (as your instructions predicted.) I'm not going to open it. The internet is a dangerous place.
    So no sheet music for me.
    Good Luck.
    Paul
