Will do another that's not live, but save it for last so others have a chance to contribute. As far as playing with "a backing I have heard before",...
You are obviously a fine and practiced player with excellent tone and phrasing. This is a great first recording, but I think with some experience it...

Education:
I have a BA in music from The University of Buffalo (Buffalo NY)
I studied classical sax there with a fine teacher , Ed Yadzinski.
Another excellent private teacher I had on clarinet was John Sedola who himself had studied with Simeon Bellison.
I'm a self-taught jazz and R&B player learning via lots of gigs and listening and transcribing.
I spent 2 years on the road with the Tommy Dorsey Band directed by Buddy Morrow and that was a great education.
I spent time on the road with Matt "Guitar" Murphy of Blues Brothers fame which was also a great education.
I also toured for 2 years with Chubby Checker of "the Twist" fame, also an education of sorts.
