Scott Hamilton (jazz saxophonist, Hamilton-Bates Blue Flames, Bottomlands Blues Band)

On this episode I got to speak with world-renowned saxophonist, Scott Hamilton! In our conversation we talk about his musical roots here in Rhode Island, plus his experience playing with some big acts through the years. We also touch upon a handful of the nearly 200 albums he's been apart of across his 50+ year career including his own approach to recording. Scott will be performing alongside his longtime friend and fellow legend, Duke Robillard on November 18th & 19th at Chan's in Woonsocket. And in November 20th Scott Hamilton is being inducted into the Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame! This truly is one of my favorite interviews because of the history it covers and insight Scott provided... and I hope you all enjoy it
