      This one of my favorite hymns and also of your take on it. I’m trying to transcribe it, but it’s too advanced for me! It’s awesome! Keep them coming!

    Greg Hawkins Man! You make me wish I could play sax! I just saw your post this morning one of my videos and visited your channel. I grew up as a huge Boots Randolph fan. You are as close to his sound & style as I have ever heard .. the subtle growl .. the phrasing .. intonation.. interpretation. It is all as Boots did it. I don't have that level of talent, but thankful to be able to play at age 71, well enough to entertain folks. Wish you were not across the country. Would love to meet you and get some tips.

    Very nice. I got the same mouthpiece, same size, but in Ultem and love it. After various experimentation using it with a Rigotti Gold Jazz 2.5M and Silverstein lig.

    • @ghawk78
      @ghawk78  5 років тому +1

      Thanks! I absolutely love my Black Widow Gen I and the Gen II pieces have a whole other thing going on, sound-wise and comfort-wise. I'm going to switch to a Gen II metal soon. When I played cane I played Rigotti 2.5M's, as well. I switched to Legere Signatures and I use a 2 (I like softish reeds). I used plain metal, 2-screw lig until my birthday and my daughter bought me a Vandoren Optimum that I really like. I know that you'll enjoy the mouthpiece!

      Greg Hawkins Subscribed :) I too play in Church although on recorder. On sax would good one day, although it fits less easily with the other instruments. Like minds and all that.
