Members Funkee1 Posted February 5, 2009 Members Share Posted February 5, 2009 From Wynton Marsalis' new book, "Moving To Higher Ground": Some time ago, the tenor saxophonist Frank Foster was playing a street concert from the Jazzmobile in Harlem. He called for a blues in B-flat. A young tenor player began to play "out" from the first chorus, playing sounds that had no relationship to the harmonic progression or rhythmic setting. Foster stopped him. "What are you doing?" "Just playing what I feel." "Well, feel something in B-flat, mother{censored}er." :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
