Arnett Cobb

I played alto sax in school band beginning in 6th grade. Later in high school I also played bari sax. In college, I played bari in the #1 jazz band and alto in the #2 band. I haven't played sax in years, however, and I'm sure all the necessary muscles are completely out of shape.  It's still my favorite wind instrument.

Arnett Cobb was from Texas, born in Houston.  He died in the same city in 1989.

You may expect to hear more about both Texan musicians and the saxophone on this blog.
