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 straddles the pop and jazz worlds while commanding respect in both. In pop, he is justly famed for his standout solo on David Bowie's 1975 hit "Young Americans"--one of many celebrated recording projects that evolved out of Sanborn's live supporting roles. Indeed, his matchless tone has additionally been sought to bolster performances by the esteemed likes of Eric Clapton, the Eagles, the Rolling Stones, James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Miles Davis, Bruce Springsteen and Stevie Wonder--many of whom have likewise gone on to enlist his inimitable sax presence in the studio.

 Somthing is missing. October 4, 2008
This album sounds like the work of a group of elderly gentlemen. It is definitely reminiscent of Hank Crawford, but it demonstrates how important the producer of a set of music is. Maybe I just need to listen to it a few more times. I would like to see Delfeayo Marsalis produce an album for this magnificent saxophonist.
 Artistic conviction: the coveted pearl! September 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
David Sanborn has achieved along all these years the well coveted status of integral artist, absolutely untied of fashion musical tendencies. His genuine versatility, astonishing expressiveness, serene lyricism and mercurial musicality have become him a living legend.
He has always known to keep that artistic integrity and bullet-proof honesty that has allowed him to survive to these tempting fashionable waves. His playing emerges from the heart, always worried by improving himself in every new title he releases.
That's why I can tell you, that any album you get from him is an absolute warranty of endless artistic solvency.
This is a wise choice.
Great music September 8, 2008
Didn't know about this CD. Glad I got it and enjoy the great music.
Lovely slow jazz from a sax master September 3, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I love David Sanborn whether he's playing sweet and slow or hot and fast. This tribute CD's got some of jazz standards and heavy hitters from other genres as guests. It's 9 songs and about 2 minutes--could be a bit longer. Still it's a very listenable CD, maybe not Sanborn's best, but well worth having on the shelf.
My favorites:
I'm Gonna Move to the Outskirts of Town--featuring Eric Clapton
Basin Street Blues
I Believe it to my Soul--Joss Stone
Okay, it's all good, but these are my current faves. Give this one a listen.
Rebecca Kyle, August 2008
Yes indeed...... August 31, 2008
a real nice set from Sanborn. I really don't think you can ever get "too laid back", as stated by another reviewer, but we all have a different way of appreciating our music. As the groove is waaaaay back in the day, yes this is predominately down tempo and bluesy, which is not a bad thing. Nice to hear Clapton pour out his heart on "I'm Gonna Move To The Outskirts Of Town". The swing of "Stoney Lonesome"and "Please Send Me Someone To Love" offers a change of pace to proceedings. For me it was a good listen from start to finish, and a relief not to reach for the fast forward button. If you like David, you should like this one. After cooling my way through it, the only button I reached for was the play button, so I could hear it again.
