Mark Maxwell, Saxophonist

Have Sax, Will Travel

Indeed, I travel a lot, and always with the sax. I habitually lean a little left because the sax is always on my shoulder.

I’ve been playing the saxophone since 1964, 43 years now! Wow! Somebody give me an honorary doctorate.

I do make house calls. That’s a lot of fun…

This one’s a lot of fun. Initially, it was my attempt to do a song in the Down To The Bone style, groovin’ on a riff in a celebratory style, funk/jazz/soul all wrapped up.  It ended up being kind of a smooth jazz saxophone celebration of life.

I invited my friend, Joe Fajen, to join me on the trombone on this tune. The trombone gives the sound a slightly Jazz Crusaders feel. Tenor and Bone - what a great sound!
