One man bands are something of a novelty: some guy with a half a dozen instruments (or more)—guitar, drums, harmonica—affixed to his body in various ways. Saxophonist Derek Brown blows the one man band route with just the saxophone on Beatbox Sax.

The first reaction on spinning the disc, opening with Brown's original composition, "Catch 'Em Up," could understandably be: "That's not live, he's slipping in loops and salting the saxophonic sonic stew in the studio with electronics." However, that's not the case, and Brown can be found on YouTube proving the point.
