This is me playing the classic tune on sax.

My ears...

...are almost bleeding. You probably weren't expecting praise on this, but seriously, polish up your skills before submitting a solo of one instrument, especially a wind instrument. Though I must say you went through the whole song without fucking up too badly. Well, I'd suggest practicing your beat. The sound is quite good, but the timing isn't there at all. That part around 1:30, it's quarter-notes, and you play them as if they were only halfs, with a huge pause in the middle (which isn't on the partition). There are quite a few other noticeable mistakes this and there, such as at the beginning. I play the sax myself, and quite frankly it's a very easy instrument.

Well, your tone is quite good, but some notes were wrong and most of the notes weren't timed correctly at all.

If you plan on submitting here, then at least make your own work, not a crappy cover of an overeasy song. Try throwing in more instruments, too. That'd be nice.

The score is kind of making me lie, though. 186 votes = 4.21

entry level

ok.dude..listen to jazz.take notes.IT IS ALL WRONG.ornaments,phrase,etc.

sounds good to me

nice attempt. you stayed very safe in your interpretation, but that works well with this song that's been recorded to death in the past. I agree with the previous review, the vibrato is a little much, make s it too sappy, and reminds me of Fred McMurray playing the theme song to "My Three Sons". Nice b2Maj7 at the penultimate chord. Keep it up, can't wait to hear what else you have to offer.

pretty good

vibrato was overmuch, and I think there was a bit too much space inbetween your notes.

Alot of it sounds forced. What mic are you using there? It really made you sounded stuffy.

Coltrane would be proud.

Sweet, solitary recording, nice one!
I'm not a sax player so i don't know much about what should be fixed and all that, but i'd be proud to play with you in an ensemble. Your tone is tasty, it'd be good for cool jazz i think.

Is that arrangement improvised, or were you reading off music? just curious, cos it's sweet.
Keep up the playing. :D
