Best Sax Jazz

"Best" to me is like the term "favorite." For me it changes from day to day, especially with music as there is SO MUCH great music out there. Last night I listened to the LP Gene Ammons "Blue Gene" and LOVED IT. Happy Listening to All!

I am surprised that no one has mentioned Joshua Redman. I think he is also a very talented Sax player! Just listen to his closing concert at San Francisco Jazz Festival 2001, playing duet with Christian McBride (bass). It wa surreal! This concert ranked right up there with his solo performance last year at the Grace Cathedral.

Duh, typical, I forgot one of my FAVORITE musicians of all time, who happens to be a tenor player- DEWEY Redman. Gundam91, please check out the infinite sea of beauty and insight from which came the young, developing Josh Redman.

Well said, Jay.

Agree with Drrasta's "Ballads" and as another melodic sample of Coltrane would add my favorite rainy day piece "The Gentle Side of John Coltrane" (Impulse). Even the cd is good.
