Lisa - David Sanborn

[@normanbrooks9062]

My life is so much richer having had the opportunity to hear Dave Sanborn.

[@TheRealG2024]

I feel the same way

[@joegarcia9742]

One of his best. And Mr. Sanborn has a lot of “bests!” Fan since 1981. Happy Birthday!

[@BNforever2009]

Rest in Peace David Sanborn. Your music will live on here in earth forever

[@1humanonthe3rdrock]

I was the only one my age, back in the day, grooving to this. This song right here touched my soul because of it's soul.

[@kellymcclelland4571]

Same here none of my friends listened to jazz when heard he passed tear just rolled down my face

[@Mr1tower]

this guys playing can move a person to tears.

[@N.A.W.A.K]

this version is an absolute masterpiece

[@gugs103]

Early Sunday morning watching the sun rising. Just a lazy time with this tune playing on the background. Now that is what life is also about.

[@marcushampton8230]

What a band! David Sanborn - Sax, Marcus Miller - Bass, Joe Sample - Piano, Phillipe Saisse - Keyboards, Paulinho DaCosta - Percussion

This one is my favorite song with David... HAPPY BRTHDAY (70th) DAVID!!! (born on July 30th, 1945)

[@dabear2438]

This was the first piece I ever heard from David Sanborn back in the 80's. It's been a favorite since.

[@saritasmith1096]

So beautiful. Makes me wish my name was Lisa.

[@lisabullock7461]

SARITA you have a beautiful name......

[@slapbush]

this is why i have always loved the sound of david...many more years man!!!

[@kalerka]

in my opinion, this is the very best version of "Lisa" ever performed by david sanborn. i would like to thank DrStrabismus for loading up this video

[@samuelmorse784]

Unquestionably greatest live version ever.

[@funklover24]

RIP Hiram Bullock. ❤

[@Mr1tower]

My god i love sanborn,he can make me cry

[@alloallie]

OH MY GOODNESS! Part of the reason I'm enamoured by the sound of the sax is this guy. He makes that instrument feel and sing! Amazing band too~

[@ProlificDecibel]

the most lyrical of any saxophonist ever!

[@cipo366]

Love love love this song... love love love to hear David Sanborn blow his sax and telling us a story..

[@malmatar]

No one can blow the sax like Mr. Sanborn! This is such a classic, just amazing!!

[@kimgriffin2904]

His sax sounds like words are coming out of it.

[@1GracieGirl]

Best lovemaking I ever had to this cut!!!! Absolutely out of this world.

[@willardlockejr]

This is real music from real performers playing their instruments live on stage. And it don't get no better than that.. I remember seeing clips of this on the old "Night Flight" series on USA Network back in 1984, and maybe one day someone will release this on DVD. David and the band were in "the zone" and I love the way it was shot in black and white. Excellent work all around.

[@walker51735]

Straight To The Heart is by far the best album David Sanborn has ever produced. The album's version of Lisa was the second song I have ever heard(first being It's You from the Voyager album) from Dave and strangely I heard it on The Weather Channel cable network in 1987. I didn't know it was performed by David until 1996. Straight From The Heart's version of Lisa is by far David's best performance on the sax oon any album.

[@MsMarcina]

Before there was Boney James there was David Sanborn!! One of the Best!!

[@covysmith8157]

Hear the way his music gently caresses Lisa as he speaks his emotions to her through his genius music.

[@mokaumadnes]

In my opinion, David Sanborn is the best Sax player on the planet, everyone always try to compete against him and he toys with them ever so effortleslly. What a legend!!! Love this song

[@shytalker]

David just love this .

[@bettymills6703]

Favorite thing to do is enjoy an evening with David Sanborn when he's within a 100 miles of me

[@Mr1tower]

If this guys playing can move a person to tears.

[@davidlongenbaugh124]

What a Soul and a sound.

[@scargriff49]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!!!!!! Sanborn is the GREATEST SAX player alive.. and my son is a professional! I love his sound ,such talent is unrivaled.. thank you so much!

[@lxolxo7]

One of my favs! Many thanks for posting this CLASSIC! DrStrabismus!!!!!!! We appreciate you!

[@DRUMTOY2002]

My absolute FAVORITE David Sanborn song and performance of ALL-TIME!!! I use to own it on VHS, but my old keyboardist lost it! Thanks for the post!

[@smilingface4761]

One of my favorite jazz songs by him. Rip 🙏

[@AldoMeyer]

De tantas melodías de David Sanborn, esta es una de las mejores, puedes percibir desde el momento en que conoce a Lisa hasta como termina esa historia de Amor, claro, con un poquito de imaginación, si Señor...

[@book4jesus4life22]

One of the Greatest SAX Players ever... He will be missed

[@bluesoulady]

i could watch this all day.....

[@mauricecrook1455]

beautiful song, it take me back to the Beach,wonderful memories

[@MsTexas73]

This is my FAVORITE DS song.

[@dubtee8997]

Wow this must be an alternate take of the version that made it onto the album! Around 1:12 mark he does something like crowd 2 phrases together, making him repeat a extra note then have to pause slightly, listen/align to the downbeat of the next bar- wow so david is actually human after all! One of my all time favorite alto players!! Rest in soul david ❤

[@ModernSaxDotCom]

back in the day, this was one of the first tunes I transcribed.....still dig the tune

[@cincinnatisaxman]

Stunning playing....dripping soul.

[@ruthyoung3759]

I love this so much.❤❤❤ Great job.

[@lacywhite5284]

Beautiful Song

[@AldoMeyer]

De tantas melodías creadas por David Sanborn esta es de las mejores, puedes percibir desde el momento que conoce a Lisa y el final de esa historia de amor, claro, con un poquito de imaginación, si Señor...

[@robertcrawford2809]

The best I ever heard....

[@1humanonthe3rdrock]

I have listen to many,many,MANY songs. No other grips my soul like this one. The closest is the harmonica solo in "Isn't she lovely."

[@midibass1]

i have the same the whole sunday more then 6 hours i only listen to this amazing song...ive cut in in samples in my loopstation and play along with my soprano sax..a perfect Sunday!

[@noeltaylor3594]

Only thing missing is the popping and static of the old LP. Have loved this for the last 33 years.

[@herman195585]

Or the hiss from the cassette

[@MrRoger2306]

Maravilha. Banda sensacional.

[@Funkyme4]

This was the best band he preformed with. Late Hiram my hero Powerfull Marcus. I wish i could have the videoregistration on dvd. You can here and see the fun the have while playin.

[@BaldBrownBro]

Absolutely beautiful song!

[@JosephAraza]

Dave is one of the reasons I picked up the sax. 20+ yrs I’ve been trying to come close to his sound, maybe in 60more years of trying I’ll come close. 😌

[@AndreaCappelli]

Great!!!!

[@monicahouston9452]

Been listening to this song a long time so g

[@greatgooglymoogly]

Still have this on video. I pray someone puts this out on dvd before my video tape turns to dust.

[@richardbecker8370]

David is Da Man.... on alto...;)

[@monicahouston9452]

I love this one 🛑🛑

[@ModernSaxDotCom]

cool, thanks for posting this, I remember notating this tune back in the day

[@iatelilwayne]

Hyrum Bullock was my mothers good friend. she still has his denim jacket from when he was in rehab, with a note in the pocket saying he will be going out for a movie and perhaps some icecream afterwards. its so sad that he passed away the other year, such a unique style, and many beleive he was better than hendrix.

[@ergudmun2]

fantastic song!!!

[@richb1653]

I have to agree with Tigorman66. Straight to the Heart was his best. It was pretty much a compilation of things he did previously. The version of "Straight to the Heart" on that CD is a beast.

[@ih17dka8]

Best song by David Sanborn as I think

[@DrStrabismus]

As far as I know this was only ever available on video. The video of the concert was broadcast several times on UK TV in the 1990's. This is where I acquired the footage. It has not been commercially available for years. The only help I can give is that the concert was called 'Love and Happiness', directed by Jean-Marie Périer ,issued in 1986 by Warner Reprise Video. Apart from the musicians listed, The Average White Band's Hamish Stuart does vocals on the title track.

[@lisainwichita]

Absolutely the best. I'd like to think he wrote this song after me when I had the privilege of seeing him in concert in late '85/early '86 and waited after the show for a kiss. lol. but nah.... Phenomenal artist.

[@antofa123]

Thanks for posting... I love this tune! This version is different to the "Straight to the Heart" version.

[@lushlife4]

Of all forms of media, I had this on a "Laserdisc" back in the day when that was the new thing. I've been hoping they would release this on bluray. I can only hope I guess. I haven't been able to find this anywhere.

[@lisabullock7461]

Still my song 💙

[@Gxyz222]

Wow, ilovegoodsax, you totally blew my mind, I didn't know any of this other information(heck, Wikipedia didn't even say half the stuff you just said). I know that people get under the impression that he might be some sort of bitter a**hole simply because of his gift, but David really does seem like a gentleman, on and off stage. That's really beautiful about his first grandchild, he's a special person and he truly deserves that honor. Again, thanks for looking out, real music never dies...

[@andydunnock8114]

1984 Straight to the Heart live studio sessions.

[@LisaD3145]

David Sanborn is the greatest!

[@tunbev]

great tune haven't heard him in a long time

[@lisabullock7461]

Still my song xoxo 😍

[@pancaketaicho]

@DrStrabismus There is a DVD version of this video. I picked it up in Japan a couple of years ago. The title of the concert and the footage is all the same. The DVD only plays on Region 2 players. If you're looking for it, try checking the Japanese amazon.co.jp or cdjapan.co.jp

[@mauricecrook1455]

Maurice Crook Mud Island , Memphis Tenn, right before the sun goes down,he plays LISA,MAN THOSE WERE THE DAY OF GOOD JAZZ.

[@ottowilliamsbass]

Excellent..

[@lisabullock7461]

My song xoxo❤💋❤💋

[@1humanonthe3rdrock]

Miss you Hiram.

[@irongirl181]

My Favorite

[@kalerka]

@kaojing1 This "Love & Happiness" DVD is ONLY released in Japan on DVD Region 2 (Japan.)

[@Gxyz222]

Thanks willardlockejr! It might take me awhile, but I'll definitely give you my personal review once I hear every song!

[@gnembhard]

@nardewww - David Sanborn has this song on 2 CDs. Straight to the Heart & he recorded it again for Inside.

[@RonsWorld5]

Yes Sir !!!!

[@donahue478]

"LISA"!

[@Deeman421]

Please bring Jazz back!!!

[@Lisawrit]

Not surprised! David wrote this just for me...my name is Lisa! LOL

[@jongwoo]

Damn, is this his same setup? I love his tone here.

[@jazzman688]

College memories DAPHNE BEATH FLOWER, of SHELBY NC. FREDICK St. EULA REST DEAR LADY, POO

[@greatgooglymoogly]

My video of this is in such bad condition.Hope this someday makes it to dvd......

[@vicster1962]

R.I.P.

[@SuperRod88]

Happy Birthday David Sanborn (July 30)

[@willardlockejr]

@Gxyz222 The tune "Lisa" was originally recorded back in 1980, from his album/CD "Hideaway". The live version is definitely much better.

[@Gxyz222]

@willardlockejr, I totally agree. As a matter of fact, I have the "Straight to the Heart" album, and your right, he played this song as if Stevie Wonder himself were singing with all his might! Still, I like the "Inside" album version of this song the best, this one is just my second fav!

[@americanpoolplayersassociation]

@nardewww you can ge it on the CD Straight to the Heart

[@jazzninja]

Is this recording on one of his albums? I'd like to get it. So far I think Another hand is his best album. Thanks, and cheers all.

[@stonyhumphries7270]

one of the sexiest songs EVER !!!

[@lxolxo7]

SMILES!!!

[@willardlockejr]

@Gxyz222 Since you mentioned "Straight to the Heart", you should check out the original version of the song (written by Marcus Miller) on his 1982 cd/album "As We Speak". It's a shorter version, but still very effective. It's one of the few albums where D.S. plays the soprano sax on several tunes (take that Kenny G). The new sax players could learn a lot from Mr. Sanborn.

[@cipo366]

I want this song played at my cremation. I'm incurable. Love this song so much. Hope I don't offend anyone with that wish.

[@lisabullock7461]

I say that too, let people listen, and think what I meant to them. Xoxo smile

[@tashiecov]

just go on google and search youtube to mp3 and copy the link from this url and paste it and convert the file to an mp3 then you can have it on your ipod or whatever :)
