Customer Reviews
A must for the discriminating saxophonist.
Imagine a person with the temporal precision of Bach and the funky groove machine aesthetic of James Brown, and you have Mr. Lenny Pickett.
A wonderful album, sure to delight any saxophone player. Playing along with the Borneo horns (saxophone, clarinet), and backed on occasion by drums and ukelele, Pickett has created an album within a uniquely American vernacular.
Buy this album.
You've never heard altissimo like this before
I am a saxophonist in the Marine Corps band and while I attended the Armed Forces School of Music, my instructor played this CD everyday. He said "shut up and listen.....there's a real sax player. Maybe you'll be one someday." He was hard on me, but I do remember hearing Lenny Pickett playing those sky-rocketing altissimo notes that he's known for on Saturday Night Live. I would definitely buy this CD.
Amazing
I've been listening to this album for 15 years and I still hear new and great things with every listen. My only complaint is that there isn't much more recorded output from Lenny Pickett than this and the handfull of ToP & SNL records.
