"i always hated the "Saturday Night Live" sax sound"

While we're expressing displeasure for the sax squawk, we should
remember lot of people feel that way about anything above hole 6 on the
harmonica, including overblows :-)

i always hated the "Saturday Night Live" sax sound,
that guys like Jr. Walker often do. then again, i love
some of Walker's stuff, even a few things that do
sound SNL-ish. 
as for squawk, i have a new-found appreciation for it
after listening to some of the latest jazz/funk stuff
by guys like Stanton Moore and Galactic. there's a sax
player named Skerik who turns "squawk" into a term of
art, so to speak. i'd love to be able to do what he
does on a short-harp. Galactic's horn-dog, Ben
Elliman, also knows how to squawk and do it right, and
he plays a pretty good harp too... (check out the
album "Ruckus")
