Songs with great saxophone

[Shel_B]

One of my favorites:

 

[ChristianReske]

 

[WeyounDS9]

Been thinking about this. Sax might be one of the single greatest instruments in music behind piano .

But that is just my opinion.

On with the thread.

Opening salvo, got to start somewhere:



^ by the way I always thought that song was by Fleetwood Mac when I was young but now I can see that it isn't.

 

[circuitsmith]

 

[Slow Car Sport Mode]

Everyone knows George Michael.

Nobody (?) knows these guys!

 

[Slow Car Sport Mode]

 

[C4Dave]

This one has it all. Alto, Tenor, and Bari.
Enjoy!
Germantown Saxophone Quartet

 

[WeyounDS9]

Everyone knows George Michael.

Nobody (?) knows these guys!

I think you will find that the postmodern juke box cover superior to George Michaels on rendition.
Especially with lots of sax.

 

[Slow Car Sport Mode]

There will never be music like this again.

 

[1000MPH]

 

[madeej11]

"Live with me" from Let it Bleed album, 1969.

 

[methusaleh]

My all-time favorite...though heavy on the rhythm section, the sax has its moments:



Cheesy as it is, my honorable mention:

 

[Yah-Tah-Hey]

Hungry Eyes and Lost In The Fifties Tonight.

 

[Malo83]

There will never be music like this again.

Listen to it on XM Watercolors.

 

[dadto2]

Branford Marsalis guest appearance with the Grateful Dead, playing "Eyes of the World" on the 1991 Without a Net live album. He switches between soprano and tenor several times. That song blows me away every time.



Also, any sound ever made by Gerry Mulligan. That man was a saxophone god.

 

[55hambone]

Foreigner's "Urgent" with Junior Walker doing the sax solo.

 

[Slow Car Sport Mode]

I'm not sure if this one made it, but, here it is.

 

[Randy_R]

Deacon Blues Aja Steely Dan Phil Gottlieb from The Tonight Show band

 

[Slow Car Sport Mode]

 

[MParr]

Jerry Eubanks was a long time flute and sax player for the original Marshall Tucker Band. He shined on this one.
