      He had a pretty killer solo with the Tommy Igoe big band when they were live at Yoshi's. I think it was 2014

      Marc's work on 'Prayer for El Salvador' on 'The Spin' album by the Yellow Jackets. Searing and soulful.

      The solo on Mercy Mercy with the Tommy Igoe Groove Conspiracy is awesome. This one with Kenny Loggins is pretty nice too ... especially the dialogue-ish part with Kenny czcams.com/video/Kbcro30GBtU/video.html I also like the old Yellowjackets tunes - the bad quality, lo-fi vibe vids on youtube :D And of course the straight up legendary performance with Huey Lewis and the Tower of Power horns czcams.com/video/kk9TFRmWCH0/video.html

      Marc & I grew up together in Nor. Cal. - his dad was my little league coach! Yea, we were very luck to have Marc in our HS jazz band. We loved going to competitions - 3 guesses who always won! We heard some amazing things he played as a junior & senior just in jazz band practice - AMAZING talent!

    I absolutely love this solo. Glad someone transcribed it. But now I have to transpose it down a half step. My altissimo is finally where I need it to be. Lots of long tone and bugle call exercises. Needed different fingerings but some in the pdf I downloaded didn’t help, but others did. Anyways thanks Mark for your musicianship.

      Maybe cause it's in minor...? 😛😂 But indeed, his work with the Yellowjackets in the 80s was out of this world! By the way, checked some songs on your channel, sounds great man! 👌🔥

    I strongly believe that Russo would have a great solo career If someone wrote good music for him. He can play anything.

      @SharpElevenMusic  Před 3 lety

      Like, the Yellowjackets... 😉 But yeah you're right. Don't know what happened that he left the Yellowjackets, but thos albums with him (how much I do like Mintzer), were absolute fire!

      @johnskamnakis2501 Před 3 lety

      @@SharpElevenMusic I think he had just one solo album since then. Mintzer is also a beast but if I had to choose, Russo would be the one. Maybe because we both play the alto (even if the similarities stop right there)

      In high school our director (Bob Soder) did write stuff that highlighted Marc while the rest of us "filled in the color". We ALWAYS won in band competitions.

    What a player, 1st came across his playing with Yellowjackets. Damn shame he chose to take a step back from the jazz world. He mentioned that he was not too crazy on practising, maybe that’s it! Such a naturally gifted musician though, love his playing👌

    • @TC-er5xy
      @TC-er5xy Před 4 měsíci

      I was in the same HS jazz band with Marc for 3 years. We practiced every day - and we were usually blown away by the stuff he would do. It sounds funny, but after a while we kind of expected it! AMAZING talent
