One of the greatest and smoothest saxophone players ever. I remember buying this album on cassette in 1985 because CD’s had not came out yet. It is regretful that he passed away at the young age of 42

George Howard and Branford Marsalis: They redefined the soprano sax sound in jazz. Slinky, sexy, and total technical mastery.

He could sing also. He did vocals on 'Let's Live In Harmony', 'No No, and 'If You Were Mine'. Also if we were still blessed by his physical presence 🙌🏿he would've also been a good actor/ comedian. Gone wayyy too soon😥💔💔💔

BEAUTIFUL, FUNKY, GROOVY JA'AAM in a George Howardian fashion. Perhaps the first new '80s soprano saxophone specialist, George Howard roughs up the soprano saxophone in like manner as does Herbie Mann on Flute. These two artists, along with Rahsaan Roland Kirk before them, have concerned themselves first and foremost with creativity and innovation. They have personalized and individualized their sound voices on their respective instruments with a uniqueness which defies standard orthodoxy. George's take on Sade's standards is as surrealistic as it is phenomenal. His treatment of Hugh Masakela's "Grazing In The Grass" is meritorious of an Oscar Award; and so also are many of his sopranophonic oeuvres. Grusin & Rosenberg Productions (GRP) has been honored to produced George Howard into becoming a well-known and -appreciated household favorite. But it has been prophesied, manifested and exemplied time and time again that "(They) whom the gods love die young." Thus, so it has been with George Howard. Death has stilled his actual voice, but not before he has bequeathed to us an everlasting library of literary effervescence in songs that have afforded us lots of joy, laughter and happiness. GH:39Anno Domini; RIP!

@cocobass Man, I sure don't know, a lot of things, actually, none of them good for music. But these days, people will pay more money, to go "see" a DJ play music real musicians recorded, than to see real musicians play live! SMH... Hey adburger, when in '85 was this concert? Sam, the bass player on this, worked with me in Atlanta, a lot during '85, so I was curious what time of year this was, I'm figuring Fall or Winter, do you know?
