Saxophonist Waldo Weathers: not just another face on the bandstand.

Nancy Bishop, The Dallas Morning News


... I must say I prefer the version without words which Weathers presents to the vocal track.

I predict that we'll be hearing a lot more from Waldo Weathers!

--John Lomax III


...the sound is pure and smooth as King Curtis, the great saxophonist. Waldo's subdued interpretation of the song gives it a mellow tone of golden honey and turns it into a love song for the sax.

It's possibly the most perfect record that exists for slow dancing. In a candlelit room, slip this on the turntable and your arms around your Significant Other and... you can't go wrong.

--Amy Martin


Weathers, who said he only sings a few songs each night, took the mike again for the tender "Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone." Picking up his sax, he walked among the customers, stopping at each table to play a few bars.

His tone got soft and intimate as he entertained a young couple sitting close together, and grainy and full of special effects as he leaned across our table to play. Back on Stage, he sang, "This house ain't a home, anytime---anytime---anytime my baby goes away." and the song ended in a poignant, lonesome wail.

--Bansy Johnson


Waldo E. Weathers does stand out some, even in the murky Sunday evening dance floor light of the Longhorn Ballroom. For one thing, he's playing a tenor saxophone with Dewey Grooms' slick little house band; Boots Randolph notwithstanding, tenor sax is a genuine rarity in country music, especially when the country music is as smooth and traditional-sounding as the Longhorn's band usually is. Then, too, Weathers is always the guy in the dark, three-piece suite, which hardly matches the row of jeans and Western shirts and cowboy hats on the Longhorn stage. And finally, Waldo Weathers is black, and as a saxophone player whose ambitions tend toward country music, that possible makes him utterly unique in all the world.

--Bruce Nixon, Dallas Times Herald


Waldo Weathers is a musical artist in full bloom.
