I happened upon this this morning and have been listening to it for the last two hours. The thing I love about music is it doesn't change. We change but the music doesn't. I bought this Miles Davis Live video in the early 90's and I still remember watching this solo. I started sitting down, then I stood up, then I started pacing, then I said "No way!", then I started running my fingers through my hair mumbling "What is this?" Then I started jumping up and down as I couldn't hold the excitement in.....
Now almost 30 years later I still have that feeling when I listen to this! It's Kenny Garrett soloing on Human Nature. Up until I heard this I had never heard a sax solo with this kind of energy. It blew my mind. Kelly Bucheger did a great transcription of it and analysis of it to check out also and I put think on there. If this is your first time watching it then strap yourself in..............Now I'm going to listen to it again........
