Ace saxophonist David Sanborn has died, age 78.

He played with everybody from Albert King to Stevie Wonder and Bruce Springsteen, but I most enjoy his work with Bowie, as seen above in an early version of “Young Americans” on The Dick Cavett Show and the definitive “Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing” from David Live. He’s all over that album, in fact, and his distinctive tone cuts and glides throughout.

In the ‘80s, he co-/hosted the best music show ever on television, Sunday Night (later, Night Music), where he played in the stellar house band behind a Who’s Who of music of that era, such as this rare TV appearance by Miles Davis.

And he recorded a series of solo albums, among them Upfront, where I heard King Curtis’ classic “Soul Serenade” for the first time, as played by Sanborn.

A lover and creator of, and collaborator in, timeless music.

New Record: Aubade (Autumn) / North Wales Expressway to Yr. Skull (Version)

It’s late October, the hour before dawn; numbed by vodka, I stare out at the black landscape, which is empty but for the three red vertical lights of the distant transmitting tower, above it, Sirius, the Dog Star, sits lonely in her vacuum. The room’s growing cold, so I pull the window closed.

In the bathroom, I splash my face with cold water, brush my teeth, and stare at the fragmented reflection in the mirror. Back in the kitchen, I pour another vodka from the freezer. And while the alcohol glows inside me, I look out again at the night then move silently to the bedroom and climb into bed without undressing.

The light is beginning to creep in by the time I fall asleep.

Save Theme (PS2)

Full album "8MB of Memories" is out now!

Finally can rest from all the work, play some games & listen to music. This track specifically, was made during the making of the "Ps2 music to chill and relax to" video. You can consider this track a short version of that mix. But this time there's only one musician, and that composer is not a genius, instead an amateur driven by nostalgia. This is one of the tracks for my PS2 nostalgia driven electronica album, and honestly I didn't really intend on uploading it (note that I made this almost two years ago if not more). I just thought it's great to share, to see what other people think.

BUT DON'T BUY IT ON BANDCAMP! I WON'T GET ANY MONEY FROM SALES! I only uploaded it to Bandcamp for better access. It will be up on YouTube much later though.

Remembering David Sanborn 1945-2024

Saxophonist David Sanborn has died at 78. In addition to his own solo music, he collaborated with loads of musicians including James Taylor (that's him on "How Sweet It Is (to be Loved by You)"), Stevie Wonder, Todd Rundgren, David Bowie (that's his epic sax on "Young Americans"), Bruce Springsteen (he played on "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out"), The Rolling Stones, and Mick Jagger among many others. I remember seeing him sit in with the band on Late Night with David Letterman and 70's SNL episodes too.

In addition to his numerous movie soundtrack contributions, he appeared in some films as a musician too, like as a street musician in Scrooged. He also hosted the late night music show Night Music with Jools Holland from 1988-1990.

~~~ Geceler Sarhoş ~~~

Ne mehtabın adı var,

Ne meyhanenin tadı,

Karanlık gecelerin,

Yine tuttu inadı,

Madem ki ay tutulmuş,

Hani yıldızlar nerde,

Zaten güneş geç doğar,

Benim olduğum yerde,

Night Music

In came the night flying on dark satin wings and as I looked up at the starry sky I knew that somewhere in the woods the mountains the prairies the children of the night were gathering their eyes shining in the dark moonbeams making their silvery white fur gleam snouts pointed straight up to the skies their mournful cries begin then building to a crescendo their magnificent…
