May 13, 20241 yr I'm not a "smooth jazz" guy, but David Sanborn was more than that. He was an avid consumer of a wide variety of genres, and he advocated for all kinds of artists. And, he could definitely play. David Sanborn Dies at 78
May 13, 20241 yr rip I recall back in the day hearing some of his stuff played on a nice stereo. Not really my cup o tea, but it sounded great.
May 13, 20241 yr His "Close-Up" album was one of the first CDs I bought in '88 after hearing it over the speakers in the CD store off Great Hills Trail (wish like hell I could remember the name of that place). He played on so many albums and soundtracks over the years (he's pretty much the signature sound of the Lethal Weapon franchise). Seemed like he was sitting in with Paul and the boys on Letterman once a month at least. Just seemed to be an all around nice guy. Guess I'll cue up some 10th Avenue Freezeout on the way home in remembrance.
