One of my favourite features on the channel is the “Sax Legends” series. It can be bewildering knowing where to start when finding out about the sax greats, so in this playlist I teach you a bit about the life and times of the greats, show a clip of them playing, teach you one of their greatest licks and share the best top 5 tracks to listen to first.
