I've learnt more about playing the blues in this last ten minutes than in all the years I have been playing saxophone. Well done, Scott - you're a star!

the pencil be chillin on the steps enjoying the amazing music lol

Everyone (not only sax players) who starts to improvise over the blues scale should watch this video! Thanks much!

Very good playing teaching video as always...

1. two bar phrases. question-answer phrasing 2. play with the rhythm - not just 8th notes 3. make some notes more important than others 4. easier to come up with rhythms with smaller set of notes (2-4 notes?) 5. embellishments - turns, falls, growls, grace notes etc

Wow one of the best thx . Starting learning again.. all about attitude. .

Scott I have been a professional musician my entire life and that sir was a brilliant presentation of the Blues Scale.

Wish I would’ve saw this 4 years ago freshman year in highschool

Good stuff Scott. I love the idea of "Questions" & "Answers"... (New idea for me) Thanks!

Brilliant Tips, thank you

Thanks Scott. I have been playing for only 6 months now and I have a great teacher. At this time he is teaching me the major scales and sight reading. I am hoping in a year or so maybe I can start playing some blues. You sound great. Thanks again. You are the best.

You've helped me a lot sir. You've made my covers superb

Great ideas. Thanks a lot

Great video, thank you.

Thanks!

My favorite question/answer is Cannonball Adderley Quintet "Work Song", so great and so nice. Thanks Scott, again so easy to follow you. Cheers!

Thank you Mr. Paddock for teaching us blues licks ...your channel is very helpful

I'm glad I found you on time sir

Thank you Scott...Iam a bass player...And I've learnt alot by just listening to how to go about things..

Nice one

Very interesting the back and forth questions and answering the music I kind of like it everything all the steps are the same LOL thanks be safe God blessing to all

ty u dad

Great video!

fantastic!

Show 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎷🎷🎷🎷

Excellent vidéo that comes at the perfect time! When you think of practicing playing two measure phrases, do you count the beats in your head while playing or do you play memorized sets of rhythms which you know correspond to two measure phrases? I am still at the stage of insuring I know where I am in a form! Thanks for your very motivating videos.

can I change tone from G to D or other tones during playing? and how? your lessons gave a lots of help, thank you very much

The question should go up. The answer goes down

how you're making that cool roll at the end? 0:06

Sir, do you do skype lessons alongside at the scott paddock sax school? I'd like to register, but I really need a one on one with you. Would that be possible?

Great Vid! I hear your syos mouthpieces are modeled after the Jumbo Java?? I’m on a T75 now but thinking of trying the syos. You sound killin dude

Hi Scott, ran across your videos while looking for sax info and had to binge watch a bunch of them. I am super impressed with how well you break information down and make concepts easily understandable. I have just started playing the sax (used to play the clarinet poorly in high school a long time ago) and I'm wondering if joining your school would be good for a pretty raw beginner. By the way, you look a lot better and more professional without the beanie! ;-)

What do you use mouthpiece...?

The problem is there's nowhere to go out and play the blues, so everybody has the blues, cuz they can't play the blues how blue is that@

HI Scott, Loving the sax school and your others Vids, quick question- Transposing for Instrument a side, You say this in the key of G would I play this over a track in the key of G/Em or Bb/Gm?

Yeeeh im the first to view and like the video
