DAVID SANBORN 1981

The world has lost an unbelievable musician and human being. These videos are now for us still here to remember his talent. RIP.

Had to come back for another listen. What a band. The eulogies are all talking about Dave playing with Bowie and leaving it at that. Fair enough, but what about his influence on generations of sax players, myself included. Then, you have a band like this… and Dave sounding like only he could. When I was coming up, Some guys were saying, “he plays out of tune and he sounds like a duck”. You can’t tell me the guy didn’t have soul coming out of every note. There was a reason why so many wanted to have his style in their bag, even if it was only scratching the surface of the original. Sure, he did his own thing, but it was unique, special, and it kicked ass. RIP, Dave.

Another youth hero has passed away. Now I am really getting old. Rest in peace and thanks for all the musical moments you gave us trough all those years.

This is Sanborn at his best IMHO. What a golden age of modern jazz. He was great, and what a band!

Thanks for posting this....just came across this. This is SO GOOD!!! I was a high school senior in ’81 and he was and still is my sax inspiration. i still have this album in my collection. Wow!!!❤🙌🏾 R.I. P. Dave.💔

Love, Love, Love Rest in power David. You were/are loved!

Great set by Sanborn and Co. 4 of these guys played again with Michael Brecker the next night headed up by Mike Mainieri on vibes.

I got a chance to meet him and chat for a few minutes. He has been an incredible influence in my life. R.I.P. David Sanborn

I had the opportunity to work with Sanborn in 1988. He was on tour to promote "Chicago Song". Met him at the concert the night before and when he walked into the studio the next day, it was ... Point fingers at each other and laugh. The rest of the day was laying down track ideas that he was getting from the start of the tour. Good horn player but had a little trouble with Canadian beer... Haha

Wow...Sanborn on a Yamaha YAS-62!!! That's a first!

Смотрю и плачу 😢😢😢😢😢

Quel son unique ! un phrasé unique ! Merci David Sanborn qui a inspiré tant de saxophonistes !

Oh my God. This is why I am a David Sanborn fan

My first jazz favorite, I was a TOTAL Sanborn fan 18 years old but man I thought he was the greatest. I'm almost 60 and his music moves me to this very day. I read something about him having to be in an iron lung 🫁, when he was younger. What a pair of lungs this man has. Thank you for your music D.S.

最高のメンツ‼︎ このアルバム　カジノライツ出た時聴きまくりました　マーカスミラー　ハイダウエイのベースソロコピーしました　今でもお手本のプレイですね‼︎ グルーヴ　フレーズ　音色　最高！！この音を出すには基本アッシュボディ　メイプル指板のジャズベース　マーカスが広めましたね。

I met David at Red Rocks Ampitheater in Denver. Our light man on tour was also his light man. He got me into the show and backstage. David walked up to me with a smile and said " Who do you play with man?!" And I said "its a Christian Rocker named Steve Taylor" who was quite popular in the 80s. David said " Thats cool man!" Total encouraging and supportive of a younger player. Ill never forget it. Wish I wouldve got a photo. R.I.P.
