I have a big music dilemma!
 
Ok, so i play sax, but i like music like Hendrix bleeding heart and red house and blues stuff like that, does anyone know what sax stuff I can find and play like that?

Learn the pentatonic minor scale in the key of the song and drop some acid.

Stay atleast 500 yards from Kenny G at all times.

"dilemma."

^fixed.
*1. You don't have issue with his grammar you have issue with his spelling.
**2. Unless he is sharing an account with you it shouldn't be "we" it should be "you" - I'm just saying unless youz are sharing an account.
***3. Usually a person is adressed before not after you wright something.

OK back to topic. I don't know if you are looking for their sheet music but transcribed for sax, or just looking for suggestions of other artist and bands. But if you are looking for Blues/Rock music that has sax in it, check out The Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers album.

I highly recommend looking up (on the internet) Bobby Keys and Jim Horn, they were session musicians - see what bands they played with etc. maybe you might like some of the bands they played with; it's really worth it, they were two of the best saxophone players of their time.

That would be addressed.

I was too excited when I saw that addressed was wrong. I felt surely there wouldn't be anything past that considering the subject of the post.

I can't tell if this is sarcastic or if you really don't know what you are posting about half the time.

OMG HAO DID THIS BCUM THE GRAMMR THREAD?
Seriously, though, sax is a great instrument. And improvising? It takes a while. I don't play sax, but I'd suggest you just get a song, you get it's key (preferrably C, or B flat if you have one of those brass instruments that is weird like that,) and just play random notes on the C pentatonic scale. That would probably be C, D, E, G, and A, unless you have one of those weird instruments, in which case it would be B flat, C, D, F, and G.
It's also useful to know the chords ahead of time. Then, eventually, you would start realising things that can improve your soloing.
