Hats off, Jamie. One of my favourite ballads and that’s the best I’ve ever heard 😢👍

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Wow, thanks Dave!!

[@olumidealagbo6675]

I love you Jamie. God bless you for blessing my heart with your emotional music sir.

[@KeithTaylorPhoto]

This gotta be one the most beautifully played versions of Misty I’ve heard on sax. Love it. And great lesson.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Awesome! Thanks Kai!

[@terryhorlick9707]

Jamie, I keep coming back to this video over and over. I think about it whenever I pull out my tenor (sub tone is much easier on tenor than alto … or not even possible on soprano or Nino). Then it just hit me, you are wearing a Better Sax shirt… to thank Jay for the backing track in addition for your plugging his Chanel. In addition to the performance in this lesson being my favorite sax solo ever you are a classy act! Keep up the good work!

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

🙏

[@stack80]

That was absolutely wonderful, this is by far the best sax version I have ever heard of this tune! Your tone is mesmerizing! Thank you so much for this video 🔥🙏🏽

[@bropeace2061]

Thank you very much. That was an eye opener to me.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

You’re welcome ☺️

[@karlholleschek7570]

Jamie, I adore the versatility of your playing and it proves, that 'Old School' and modern styles like funk are equally worth to be studied generously. As I am seven decades 'young', I seldom play on stage any more and instead use a lot of playbacks in different styles. Many of them have piano phrases from the beginning to the end and don't leave enough space for the soloist. Less is more, I would say, also to my beloved Video teacher Jay Metcalf! Thank you for your engaged lessons and greetings from Austria!

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Thanks so so much for commenting and watching 🙏🏻

[@derek_williams]

Probably the best ever sax tuition video I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot. Maybe the best sax video on KZbin - I need to find how to buy you that coffee. So much good advice that is easily put into practice as well as things that would need more work and the demonstration at the end was breath-taking - I realise how much more I can put into ballads. Love it love it love it!!!

Gorgeous interpretation. I didn't expect the growl, but if fit in so nicely. Thanks for this Sunday treat!

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

I don’t think I expected it either. Romance and love does have teeth sometimes?!

[@ollystevens9201]

Great lesson. Great to hear you playing a ballad again. Last time I heard was in late 90s when you were in the finals of the Young Jazz Musician playing Chelsea Bridge on TV. Had that on VCR and played again and again; real inspiration for me as 16 year old just starting out. Misty was fantastic and after years of playing this tune and then not playing it recently,, I want to get back to it!!

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Wow. That IS going back. That’s insane! 🤣

[@noosweat7022]

Jamie your performance of Misty was so hot your Sax was smoking. I guess you do have to "Get Your Sax Together" after that hot performance. I can still hear the sizzle across the ocean. :) Great Job & Awesome Playing... Let the Music Play.

Ha! It did feel like a fire hazard I must admit.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Glad to hear it! 😀

[@Caglarsax]

Your teaching skills are brilliant. I learned a lot from you.i believe you are one of the best teachers on KZbin. I have some troubles on the mouthpieces.I think high baffle mouthpieces give good response.i wonder what type of mouthpiece to play for the ballads ?i assume you play with a high baffle mouthpiece which needs less effort (air)i dont know :)thAnks again for the great videos.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

You should join my inner circle. You can ask me questions all day!

[@robstevens9590]

Thanks Jamie! Nice interpretation of this classic! I do think it is helpful to at least be familiar with the lyrics of a ballad, so you get the "feel" of the song. I really needed this over-view of ballads, as tomorrow I have a gig and although I won't be playing Misty, I will be playing a number of ballads. I like your "Johnny Hodges" bends.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Thanks! Have a great show!

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Hope your gig goes well Rob!

Fabulous interpretation of Misty and as always a great lesson,( love the scat bit😊). Quick question, when you are playing that soft do you tongue the notes? Cheers Ray

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Yup still tongue when it’s soft. 👍🏻

[@bobpremecz5429]

Now that's some soulful and sensual saxophone playing! Great choice of backing track, too! Erroll Garner's tune was one of my favorites when I first started playing out. I applaud your fantasitc tone control throughout, although I'd be less prone to include that growl at 25:56. Were you thinking of Dave Pollack at 26:19 with that weak crying altissimo slow fall? Lots of great advice, as always.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Hey Jamie, what exactly do they play when they do double time? I'm getting obsessed with finding out. Lol

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Who’s “they”? I assume you mean good jazz improvisors? If so, the answer is fairly involved as you’re really asking me “how do you improvise jazz?” Luckily I created an entire step by step course to address that topic and it’s called a improvisation mastery. www.getyoursaxtogether.com/improvisationmastery I open registration a few times a year.
