Full Circle: How a Saxophone Lesson Became a 30-Year Reunion with Horace Alexander Young
About this Podcast:
Kerry Douglas opens his door expecting a saxophone teacher for his 12-year-old daughter - instead, he finds Horace Alexander Young, the same musician who played on his breakthrough gospel hit "I Believe" three decades ago. What starts as a coincidental reunion becomes something deeper as the 70-year-old saxophonist reflects on a lifetime in music, from surviving a devastating car crash that nearly ended everything to teaching the next generation that "some people practice a lot to get it right, others practice so they can't get it wrong." The episode captures lightning in a bottle as Horace plays both the original "I Believe" and improvises on the newly reimagined version, proving that true artistry never fades. Between stories of Luther Vandross, career wisdom for aspiring musicians, and the emotional weight of music that travels through generations, this spontaneous conversation reveals how the universe sometimes aligns to bring artists back together exactly when they need each other most. Kerry and Horace discover that their musical DNA runs deeper than memory - it's written in the very soul of the songs they created together.
