First - Joe Banana, I play a selmer mouthpiece on alto and I'm very happy with the sound. Just be confident and play your long tones. Kelsey - No disrespect, yet Joe asked for help for sounding like his favorite player, not who sounds better. Joe might not like Brecker. I know a few people who like Pharoah but don't dig Brecker.

how does it seem strange that trane liked the way he played? hes only one of the best players ever. personally, ill take trane over brecker anyday. of course, im not really into that super bright tenor-sounding-like-alto crap

I don't care who you like. We all have different taste. To me Pharoah Sanders dosen't sound good. That's why I jokingly asked you that if you find out how he makes that sound please let me know so I won't do it. I think it strange that Trane liked him and recorded with him. But Trane was a great inovator and was always trying something new. Having arguments with amature players is not my thing. I won't answer anymore of your nonsense.......Kelsey

To kelsey and cuber - I sincerely THANK you for reminding me why I stopped posting on this forum in the first place. I think I will go to another forum where civil discussions (not pointless comparisons) can take place. Thankyou, Sean.

oh, i thought you ment it was strange that trane liked the way trane played, not pharoh sanders (yes, i know its misspelled)
