About
Justin Chart's alto saxophone solo is the third and final solo on this live funk performance, and the longest statement of the three. At 93 BPM in F minor with an open form, Chart closes the solo section with a sprawling improvisation stretching across more than a minute of playing time. The gradual expansion of solo length from Saul through Rocha to Chart creates a satisfying dramatic arc, with each successive statement raising the stakes. Chart's extended closing solo brings the performance to its climactic peak.
Justin Chart was 53 to 54 years old at the time.
