Free Myspace Layouts

For the past decade Fred Vigdor has been the saxophonist and horn arranger with the legendary Average White Band, The majority of the year finds “Freddy V” performing with AWB on television, radio and at festivals and clubs all over the world. He is featured on the AWB CDs “Face To Face”, “Living in Colour”, “AWB: Greatest and Latest”, “Soul & The City; Live at BB Kings” and the concert DVD “Tonight: The Average White Band”.

In the Summer of 2004 he took over the saxophone duties with vocalist Michael McDonald on the Rock & Soul Revue Tour. It was through this collaboration that McDonald asked Fred to play on his “Motown II” CD.

His compositions have been recorded by Grover Washington Jr., AWB, Bob Baldwin and Marion Meadows. When he is not on the road, Fred is working on his solo CD with his writing partner/co-producer, Morris Pleasure (Janet Jackson, Earth Wind & Fire), and performing with organist Ike Stubblefield’s Organic Groove, as well as his own group around the Atlanta area.

Just dropping by to lay some love on you and admire the music you have on show.

Love the snare drum sound on "Sumthin" and the excellent vocals by Alan and Klyde on "You Can't Have It All" pure soul at it's best.

Keep it funky.

Thank you so much for the add, Freddy. The music on your page sounds amazing. I am so incredibly bored musically and am always looking for new sounds so is the new album available yet?

I will be seeing you with AWB on Saturday and I am so excited. I had such a great time at the show here last year and loved your playing. I hope to see you there. I'll be the girl on bended knee begging you to marry me!!!

Take care.
