Remembering David Sanborn: A Musical Legacy that Transcends Time 1945-2024

Sunday afternoon, May 12th, 2024, marks the passing of a true musical titan, David Sanborn. With a career spanning six decades, Sanborn’s name became synonymous with innovation, virtuosity, and a boundless passion for music.

From his humble beginnings in St. Louis, Missouri, where he found solace and inspiration in the blues, to his meteoric rise to fame on the global stage, Sanborn’s journey was nothing short of extraordinary. Contracting polio at a tender age could have dampened his spirits, but instead, it ignited his love affair with the saxophone, a love that would shape the course of his life and musical legacy.

...it was that Bowie album for me. '74 or '75.
Then he played on Ian Hunter's "All American Alien Boy" record.
I had some of his smooth jazz stuff because I got into that genre with Gato Barbieri.

For Gato, I suggest anything off Ruby, Ruby. Lots if people like Caliente best, but that is my 2nd favorite.
