Description : A unique opportunity arose for me last weekend to meet one of my all time saxophone hero's. I had arranged for all of my pupils on woodwind to have master classes with Snake Davis. Now some of you might know him, but I can imagine the majority of you are saying WHO! Well this guy plays with the cream, Paul McCartney, Amy Winehouse,Lisa Stansfield,M People ect.... One of the things which came out of these five sessions was the ability to play solo, no band or instruments, just one saxophone holding a melody/solo with chord changes, and making sure it sounds good. So hey ho I gave it a bash this morning and recorded this first time through, I'm really happy with it and if you all agree, then I will chop it into loops so you can all play as well, cheers Slap...
Description : Saxophone kicks this song off then a great intro from Kev Eland on the trumpet helps create the last post feel I was looking for, and a nice bit of snare drum from Jon Chapman adds that milatry flavour. this song is about the break down of a relationship and how it usually turns nasty, but then your faced with starting again hence Stand alone, picking yourself up and being strong.
Slap on piano and sax, Fiona Wood on backing vox.
