Wabash pronunciation: Whah’- bash (schwa like in “ah,” then short a like in “ash”) - emphasis on first syllable (basically both emphasized the same) From the song “Wabash Cannonball” :)

Cannonball licks? Yes PLEASE 🤩

Wabash- a river in Indiana, and found in the title of an old American tune about a a train, The Wabash Cannonball

Wabash==wahbash put the emphasis on the 2nd syllable. The Wabash River is in the state of Indiana and eventually dumps into the Ohio River that finds its way to the Mississippi River and that will take us all the way to New Orleans. That's pretty good place to find some blues licks too. As an aside, when I was in the 3rd grade (which I figure was before you were born) We sang a song about a train called " The Wabash Canonball" It was known quite well by all. ; ) Greetings from the Emerald City

(lgh) Thanks, champion 🏆

"WAH-bash" A suburb of Chicago, IL Great playing, nice lesson. Thank you SO much. You do a wonderful job of teaching.

Best to relate this to your culture. The British novelist Evelyn Waugh accounts for the first--and accented---syllable. The second syllable is just a bash: a party, a blow to the head, rhymes with "stash." So a rowdy party at Evelyn's would be a Waugh-bash. PS, Great video. I'm working on these every day. How about some King Curtis?

Wob-ash (emphasis on the second bit)

You are the only person I have ever encountered who pronounces "saxophonist" correctly.

Fantastic Jamie. Well Done... This is what we need!

Cheers mate ...great stuff to work on 👍👍👍👍🎷🎷🎷🎷

Fantastic inspirational and challenging clips to work on, thanks Jamie.

Wow thanks so much! That was so helpful

Thanks for this video! As a beginner saxophone player, I couldn’t get fast blues scales, but with practise, now im better than 3 months ago!❤

Great little tip that is easy to do and really works! .. Also good to go up the blues scales for practicing. Thanks! 👍🎷

There are no words for the information you provide. Thank you

vocabulary. You so much Jamie

Wabash as in a lazy WA WA peddle pronunciation, listen to lyrics of "The Wabash Cannonball" (refers to a train run) you'll hear the local vonacular.

Sweet licks Jamie.

Hi, Jamie. It’s “WÄH-bash” (short “a” on the second syllable). Cheers.

Thank you so much for making this!

Such beautiful blues licks! Very helpful, as I will be having a try-out/rehearsal playing some blues numbers with a new band this week! (As a native Chicagoan I can say that your 6th try at pronouncing Wabash was the closest: Waw' bash).

I am astounded Jamie by your knowledge and sax skills...excellent! & Thank you so much, for your awesome videos alone has Improved my tenor playing immensely. and now started the masterclass. These great blues tips you shared here will make an incredible difference in what I enjoy playing as I want to keep learning.. I can even feel it already ..im getting oberwhelmed and rightheaded with gladness just thunking about it and I cant wait to pwactice now again, splendid!.. Oh wait, neverminded not yet, as its like 4am here..need some wrest feeling a bit... sweepy..... Oh, and keep the bloopers.. they are really......zzz....zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Maybe you could try listen to the song flower garden by Arnett Cobb, I would like to heard your opinion of his solo.

I was finding the fingering for the Brecker lick a bit tricky when he goes Ab C D Ab, but then I realised you can play this with Ab fingering and just lift the B key to get C and press the D palm key to get D with all the other Ab fingers in place.

IMO BIRD is also a great bluesy player. You can find some incredible lines is his recordings like KC Blues, Parker's Mood etc

Excellent! I'd subscribe to your courses but I'm already a member of Dr Wally's course.

Thanks Mr Anderson! That is cool as always.

Champ ❤

WowZer! Love this Jamie. 🎷❤️ Thank you for this great video. 🙏

Thanks FYI there is a river in indiana called the Wabash river near Chicago!

Great teaching.

Very nice piece of teaching!

Fingering into the scoop or bending into it or both?

Wob -ash, with the emphasis slightly on the second syllabub, apparently

Your best vid yet

Wabash railroad was made famous in the song Wabash Cannonball. BTW it's (wah-bash)

Wah bash

Kenny Ball Adderley

Wah-bâsh (water over white stones) - “W-ah-b-ash [as in ‘ash’ like the tree]”

It was a pun on Adderley's part: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aLxig5earLyyqYk.html, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wabash_Cannonball
