Hi,

Picked up the alto sax last may for the first time, daughter used to play and left it hanging around. Found this site and everybody seems really friendly and helpful.

Hi Rob, welcome to the cafe, I see you've posted a sound clip too so I'll browse over that direction soon and have a listen.

Good advice to all daughters. Leave lots of saxophones lying around so that dads can enjoy the finer things in life. Welcome to the cafe, Rob.

Welcome to the caff, El Robbo.

Feel that you should be warned that only CaSLM members are allowed threatening user names and hope you've got one of your town's cars.

ENJOY!

Hi there, the Robster!

Just carry around a selection of cheap, pretty mobile phones and it would be an easy way to acquire all sorts of musical instruments from others' daughters - could set up Mazuma "Sax or Phone".Com and have a great trade going in no time!;}

Hope you are enjoying learning Alto Sax (my favourite, even if it is the one people commonly start with!). What stuff do you like playing/learning?
Be fun to hear. Welcome to the Cafe from Skabertawe!

Kind regards
Tom

Hi Rob, welcome

 

[El Robo]

Thanks for all the welcome comments.

Old git - I wish i did have one of those elusive cars! However my sax teacher lives directly opposite the factory and her husband works there!! So if i take a wrong turning it's great anyway

Tom - used to be called robster as a teenager, had a bit of a flashback for a moment! I'll TRY to play anything but i am more drawn to bebop/swing/blues stuff. Have dexter gordon on almost constantly at moment and i love lester young. I'll listen to absolutely anything tho as I've always thought that a good tune/song is a good tune/song. it doesn't seem to matter what i play on my sax tho it ALWAYS makes me feel good

Hi Rob
Welcome. You may find that listening to enough Lester Young, Ben Webster and Dexter Gordon my just cure any cravings for the locally built car.
