Wow! Clear, sweet, mean, serpent-like, mischievous, bluesy and fun... all in one solo. Loved it!

You GO, Randy! This is what a tenor should sound like! Great job!

This is really helpful for anybody, not just sax players. Thanks a lot man

Thanks Horbergus, I think the most important thing is understanding the various aspects of playing jazz that you are studying.. In my lessons, I try to take the mystery out of the process, and make things understandable and attainable. Best to you- Randy

Absolutely beautiful. I'm sure I could hear a bit of Sonny Rollins in there at various times, and I think there was some tenor madness right near the end. I don't think I've ever heard a better rhythm changes solo. I'm a beginner at jazz violin, and working through this will be very useful for me.

Randy, you're the best! 40 years and I now finally get this one.

So cool!!! Saxophone heaven. Great video, you sure know how to make that sax sing. I cannot wait to learn more jazz!

Many compliments, Randy! This demonstratione is more valuable than 100 explanations! Great!

Whoooo! Damn... I gotta transcribe those arpeggios!!! And those blues licks!!!

Nice playing. Like the tenor madness quote to finish

Randy, Inspirational. Just great playing. Loved it..

Awesome randy, you're a good inspiration when studying jazz feels difficult

Thanks Jay, haven't played in ah number years and after hearing you I think I'll start practicing again ... Thanks again

This is great! Thanks Randy, I am definitely going to transcribe that killer solo! Hopefully it will help with my school's septet auditions :-)

These few tips made rhythm changes about 20x easier for me, thanks.

Exactly what I'm looking for, I'm going to transcribe this over the next couple of weeks! Thanks alot!

Awesome! Randy is the best!

Thanks for checking out the lesson. I do have a video called "Saxophone Overtones, Embouchure, and Tone" on my saxtrax KZfaq channel. I hope you'll check it out. Randy

@SaxophonisteSamuel Thanks! That great PlayJazzNow play-along track makes it hard to go wrong!- Randy

Absolutely fantastic Randy!

I'm playing a Mark VI tenor with a Mark VII neck, Guardala Studio mouthpiece, and Rico Jazz Select unfiled 3 medium reeds.- Randy

Great video. You've certainly got that bouncy swing thing goin' on. Thanks! I may borrow a few of these ideas...

You Rock, Swing and Zing. Coolifcient !

Great playing on this classic tune. Lovely stuff...

Thanks Chris! -Randy

Superb playing Randy. If I was wearing a hat I would take it off to your ability and expertise. Wow!

Thanks!- Randy

Just perfect- Thanks for posting.

okay. I might look into trying to get lessons. I live in Augusta Georgia and might be interested in online lessons. I met Khiyon and he is now my favorite sax player and I love his improvisation skills and sound!

Enjoyed it very much

Great job...Inspiring.

Wow! Great saxophone playing! I am a singer and am going to try to learn every chorus you play here. So swinging!

Great sound and expressiveness. I'm a new saxophonist and I will take my time to get it right. This is an awesome performance. :)

Great sax, great sound ; i have to practice my tenor sax

Geez Randy you and Don Menza should have gotten together for a sax battle. That would have been amazing. Your solo is smoking...

nice!!

Hey- Khiyon is great! I enjoyed working with him for several years. Hope to hear from you- Randy

Verry good play saxophone jazz

Thanks! Yes, I teach a lot of students, both live and over the internet. Look me up. I'm easy to find via google.

And with every chorus I learn, I can check out the video and maybe know what I'm doing :)

Nice.

I can hear you play a lot Dexter Gordon... Very nice sound!

I think he should do a lesson on how to get that tone man! Pres lives in this guy! gimmie some insight into that sound please!

1:29 brilliant texture change...

wow thnks ! I'll try :D

This is beautiful! I met a former student of yours, do you still give lessons? I wish I could come up with this stuff.

Yes, he really is. In person lessons are probably too long of a drive, so if i'll try to get lessons they will probably be online. I'm still figuring out some info first though. For how long did you teach Khiyon?

heh to jest muza,kapitalnie.

Textbook!

3:39 - please tell me Randy you were channeling Sonny Stitt on that lick!!!! Beautiful.

@Eaglesax1 Hee hee, you said axe.
