Here and Gone
:Album Description:On 'Here and Gone,' David Sanborn places his saxophone squarely within the context of the jazz-inflected pop music history that he himself has long been a part of. And while it was conceived as a tribute to his heroes, it inevitably traces his own development as the man who has heroically taken the saxophone to the next level. 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 ...

Timeagain
: :It's not hyperbole to say that this is Sanborn's best record since his Warner Brothers heyday of the '80s. The same can be said of the quality of the musicians gathered for the alto saxophonist's first album for Verve. The material may be the best he's ever assembled, with many cover tunes that are singularly identified with other artists, yet he redefines them. None of those words are meant to disparage those Grammy-winning gold albums of yore, it just his high standards have been magnified many fold on these 10 tracks. ...

Closer
:Album Description:On Closer, six-time GRAMMY.-winner Sanborn selected music from an extensive array of songwriters and composers; everyone from Charlie Chaplin to James Taylor is represented here. Sanborn also contributes two original tunes to the mix.

Saxophonist Bob Sheppard makes a special appearance on one number. Adding ...

Upfront
: :It may come as a surprise to some that David Sanborn, the smooth-toned alto saxophonist who has become one of the most imitated players of the post-fusion era, got his start blowing red-hot blues charts with one of Paul Butterfield's better lineups. Certainly Sanborn has gone on to slicker, more technically challenging, horizons. This 1992 set is a fairly typical major-label moneyfest lined with big-ticket studio studs, an undoubtedly huge production budget and the obligatory celebrity walk-on (guitarist Eric Clapton). Marcus Miller plays bass and co-produces a lineup filled with studio ...
