David Sanborn Group / Chicago Song (1990) 

David suffered from poliomyelitis as a kid. The doctor told him to start playing an instrument to strengthen his lungs. The rest is history.

HE WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. RIP DAVID, YOUR MUSIC LIFTED US ALL

David used to go to Art Shell Music on 48th Street in NY to get his horn repaired…I managed the guitar shop there. When I heard him playing, I’d go upstairs to say hello. He was as kind, talented and personable a person as you could ever meet! His unique sound always stood out, and his jazz licks were always tasteful, powerful and memorable. Bless you brother - Your music lives on!

One of God’s Greatest Gifts to the Music World! Thank you David ♥️R.I.P.

Last week, I cried tears of sadness. Now this week, they are tears of joy for all the happiness his music gave me. Rest In Peace & Power, David Sanborn. Thank you for sharing your gifts to us.

REST IN PEACE DAVID. Thanks for the great sounds in my car as I drove around Philadelphia back in the day.

When this song was released I adopted David as a Chicagoan. I had already recognized him as a genius. He will be so missed. Rest in peace, dear sir.

David had such a signature sound and musicality. This band is off the dam chain.

Rip David!❤️

He even got Elton John to play the keyboards.

Hopefully David and Hiram Bullock have reunited in the after world for a heavenly jam session.

Hiram and David, it's just so weird when your teenage hero's just cease to exist. They were great, thanks!

Rest in Power beloved Brother David, you were one of a kind🙏🏽🌹🕊️🎷🎶
