in the midst of a jazz deep dive. i'd skimmed the surface before (like, i knew miles davis/kind of blue, coltrane, played guitar so i was familiar with guys like joe pass and pat metheny) but i've gotten really enamored with the timbre of the saxophone and i've been digging into sax players

pharoah sanders really grabbed my attention - i heard you've got to have freedom and it blew my mind, then i threw on karma and i realized this dude's a genius. also heard some guys like albert ayler and eric dolphy doing some wild poo poo. the baritone riff in moanin' is great. i've been kind of scattershot in my sax exploration, give me some guidance jazz friends.

you would be well served listening to an insane amount of cannonball as leader and sideman. he doesnt come off cutting edge these days but hes a great model imo.

i threw on somethin' else a few days ago cause i heard this from others and autumn leaves is one of the jazz standards i actually know from guitar, i'll check out more of his stuff

Kind of the exact opposite of Trane and Pharoh Sanders, but Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins, and Lester Young are so loving cool and chill. Love Lester Young’s little solo on this tune
