"Uptown Funk" Mark Ronson ft. Bruno Mars: The Cannonball Band saxophone cover ft Eric Darius

[@carlosd.martinez1457]

Damn it's like that sax was glued to his mouth when he was born! The man is speaking saxophonese !

[@ihavegcc472]

Lmao thats funny

[@Sphagetti__]

It's saxophonecian, actually

[@ejcanuel6528]

I wish we have accent or language like that😅

[@connorkonen5770]

As a fellow musician and singer, I can say that it is incredibly hard to sustain and maintain such a high level of energy when you are playing a pop song like this with no singer. The sax player on the right has so much swag, and attitude to his playing that I could totally listen to this version on a regular basis. This is great musician ship and stage presence and I’m really glad I found this video. If you are any sort of instrumentalist, you can learn a lot from this guy

[@michaelthomas4805]

Yes. The kid can rock it with so much funk

[@luizcarlosmarinho6349]

Aaqaâc,ZDas-‐,,,-,,★

[@NSC006]

Disagree: Alto 1 brings too much energy, it's an overload. He's breaking the balance of the song by playing everything too loud and adding a too-pop vibrato/embrochure over a Funky song (Funk sax ≠ pop sax). He is in the line that separates music and noise, and, from My perspective, he crossed it a bit

[@sertechin]

[@timkarn6654]

I play sax,guitar,keys,violin,bass,drums,sing,anyone with drive can play cross-harp, the only thing I Am learning here is I have been cheated and underappreciated for 50 years (72 yrs old now, painting houses,live music is mostly non-existent.

If this doesn't make you fall in love with the sax, I don't know what will!

4:12 is the nastiest growl and one of my favorite so far. Randall Clark never dissapoint when it comes to growl sound.

[@johnvaros8246]

It’s actually called a split tone, Randal Clark made a video explaining how he does it

[@mrmrmeta3698]

See that split tone is why I play sax I want to be that guy who can do that

A round of applause for Eric Darius! He's actually so rude in this, he killed it! Actual goals! The Baritone was good as well

[@iAlberto923]

YES! And he had a really solid groove throughout the song!

[@nilgilimartinez8325]

hey! I'm Nil and I had Mr Clark when I was in band at Corner Canyon HS and let me tell you that he was the best teacher. I'm from Spain, and I came to America with a really low clarinet level. Music didn't really ment anything to me till I see how fun it can be. I don't know if he remembers me, but he made me love music. Maybe this dpesn't mean anything to anyone, but I think he sould be really proud of his job and what he is doing with all those kids. I hope I'll meet you in the future. Thanks for everything!!

[@craighutchinson5371]

This reminds me of PRINCE saying "real music for real music lovers." And this band hits that nail right on the head. Absolutely fantastic.

[@salatyell]

I'm still perplex by the fact that the lead alto grooved the crap out of me with just his sax. I Felt his energy! GG!

no auto tune. no samples. authentic talent. kudos to the band. well got damn for E.D. for morphing into the zone. powerful.
