Unusually for me I decided to try an alto take. YAS 62 MkI Selmer S90 MP Legere Signature 2.5. Doesn't sound like me at all?
I loved the way you told that story!

Keep in mind I've only had this horn for 2 hours
without backing track, so that's what I did for this month BOTM.
Only played the theme, which is new for me and since I'm a bad music reader, and didn't have much time to practice it most probably doesn't sound like way it should! Tried to stay close to the beautiful interpretation of the almost 90 years old Von Freeman, shared before in this thread. No sound effects added, just posted as recorded.
I also did a take with the backing of Rhys, but have to find out if I can reduce the backing bleeding in the sax only track to get a reasonable sound quality. Let's see!

I really enjoyed your rougher bluesy take, thank you.Here is my take with backing (thanks Rhys!). The bleeding during recording was in the end not too bad. Bit rougher and more bluesy than my solo take posted above.
Thank you so much for this - I've never listened to him before. He's on my list now and if I'd been wearing socks they would certainly have been knocked clean off!While I was working on recording this wonderful tune I came across this old favorite of mine by Slyde Hyde and Pete Christlieb. Enjoy.
Pete's playing on "Someone to Watch Over Me" will knock your socks off.
I wasn't very happy with the version I posted and after listening a few more times it was beginning to annoy me. So...here's another attempt. Same backing track, same saxophone, different reed.
You’ve been cleansedThat washed over me beautifully this morning, thank you - loved it.
Beautiful just beautiful
