Hey everyone, I just joined this site. Have been posting for years over on the Sax On The Web Forum, under the username JL (some of you might know me from there, for better or worse). I had to add a middle initial to my name here since 3 letters are required. Hence JSL, but I'm the same guy as JL. Pete Thomas has encouraged me to join here, so here I am.
I live on the coast south of San Francisco and I've been playing sax since high school days in the late 1960s (so for a long time). I'm mostly a blues/R&B player but love jazz and still attempt to play it, always keeping the blues inflection alive in there. I had my own blues band (South City Blues Band) for about 20 years, but that ended a few years ago, due to two key members moving out of town and gigs disappearing during the pandemic. These days I mostly play in various blues jams and on occasional gigs with other bands. Tenor sax all the way.
I'll do my best to navigate this new (to me) forum and look forward to meeting the membership and sharing info & sax lore.
