Virtuosos (Sax/Trumpet/Horns) - David Sanborn

WIKIPEDIA

David Sanborn (born July 30, 1945) is an American alto saxophonist. Though Sanborn has worked in many genres, his solo recordings typically blend jazzwith instrumental pop and R&B.[1] He released his first solo album Taking Off in 1975, but has been playing the saxophone since before he was in high school.[2]

One of the most commercially successful American saxophonists to earn prominence since the 1980s, Sanborn is often identified with radio-friendly smooth jazz. However, Sanborn has expressed a disinclination for both the genre itself and his association with it.


I particularly like this song of David Sanborn, from the album, As we speak. I still have a vinyl record of this and it's sooo soothing to listen to this particular cut in the album
