David Sanborn Trio October 21, 2011

Few musicians are so closely identified with their instrument that they overshadow their peers, but the iconic David Sanborn truly merits his singular position as a saxophonist, unrivaled as a player who straddles the pop and jazz worlds while commanding respect in both.

Sanborn is by far the hardest working jazz sax player today. This 6 time Grammy Award Winner has recorded with everyone from James Brown and Eric Clapton, to Paul Simon, Steely Dan and the Grateful Dead.

His sound has been described as "forceful and tender, sensuous and subtle" and he is widely considered to be "among the best sax players of the past four decades," according to Rolling Stone
