Thanks Dave! Your bluesy example, with lots of bends and scoops, is very different from most of the things I've heard you play.

Great stuff Dave. Stealing your stuff to use with students all the time. Great to hear different ways to teach this stuff. Keep em coming!

Somebody's getting better... Sounds like somebody's been paying attention to Lenny Pickett lately, especially starting around 6:23 with the ta-ta-ta-teeee screaming target to turn the phrase... As always, love your explanations. 💋KISS method works!

So I installed a Floyd Rose for nothing? 😢

Hey Dave big fan of your videos. Being that you play BSS reeds maybe you'd be able to help with this. Im currently playing on a vandoren v16 with red java three reeds on Alto, and im looking to try out Boston Sax Shop (black box) reeds, what size reeds should i lean towards?

I often think of “play a flat B, rather than a Bb”

Dave, is Johnny Hodges still alive?😮

bazinga!!

why the change of mouthpiece from 10M fan Alto madness ?

Fender Bender?

Thanks for this video - i have a question connected to it.... I have been experiencing with embouchure, and improving towards a fuller tone. All the advice I can find - and my personal experience - direct me to a looser embouchure, and the mouthpiece further in. In that position though, it is difficult to loosen the embouchure even more , to be able to scoop up to the correct pitch, because my embouchure is already very loose.... now i am wondering how loose should be your "normal" embouchure - so that you get the best tone, but you are still able to further loosen it in order to scoop up.....
