Introduction Hello from Manchester

[_ray]

Hi Pete,

Complete beginner in my early thirties. Could you send me the links to the extra pages please? Not sure if they are relevant to a brand new beginner, but hey can't hurt to read more.

Anyway, watched your DVD, hmm, I wonder when it was filmed... found it very informative felt like I don't need a human tutor, but will try to find time to get some lessons anyway.

Hi Ray and welcome to the breakfast room.

The DVD was shot in the early 90s. A human teacher is best if you can get one. There are plenty in manchester - try to find Steve Shaw - a great player who does repairs now also.

Access should be available now

Hi all, hi Pete,

Yeah, I noticed copyright 1991 at the end of the video. I have found a tutor but not had chance for a first lesson just yet.

I was having problem getting a sound from the sax at first, then bought some rico reeds and that seem to have helped. However I am still getting a lot of squeeks!

Pete, do you have contact details for this Steve Shaw? PM me maybe? Thanks.

Ray
