Check out the sax player. I wonder if he get's paid for two. :shock:

Albert Collins, one of my all time favorites.

The innovation of this technique should be credited to Rahsaan Roland Kirk.

Incredible stuff guys. One of my fav Albert Collins tunes is "Honey Hush". I can't get anywhere near to what he does but I like the bass line so much, I made the effort to duplicate that, so I can now play it too :P

I went to Nokie Edwards birthday bash in Yuma, year ago last March, and the fellow playing sax was also blowing his own duets (doesn't sound right somehow :shock: )using a tenor and an alto... It was sooo cool to listen to his harmonies, and he seemed to have endless lung power! This concert was probably on of Nokie's best in recent times too...he played "Tears in Heaven", and there wasn't a dry eye in the house!

Playing two saxes at once, wholly fock!

Albert is magnificent.

Thank you for sharing.
