Viva la sax!

Another Romeo Void song with sax I like is "A Girl in Trouble (Is a Temporary Thing)."

Doh!
How could I make a glaring omission by leaving out those two classic RV trax?
Especially, since 'A Girl In Trouble' (12" version) is one of my all time NW faves!

The Psychedelic Furs not only used it on Heartbeat, the whole first album was littered with the sax. They were a six member band at this time. Duncan Kilburn's primary instrument was the sax

I'm listening to The Hunter by Blondie as I type this, there is a complete horn section in most of the songs.

The Suburbs also featured a horn section on record and live.

2nd time on this thread (Thanx to SS for catching #3[;)])

Hmm.. A certain <a href="http://eil.com/newgallery/Alison-Moyet-Invisible-17934.jpg" target="blank">Alison Moyet tune</a> comes to mind for some reason..[:I]

 Outside of the 'Smooth Jazz' genre, you'll be hard pressed to hear that instrument accompanying any contemporary music tracks dating back to the late 80's. (Thank Grunge for that)

Here's some great 80's sax solos, lead ins & fills (NNW & NW)

Aretha Franklin - Freeway Of Love
David Bowie - Let's Dance, Modern Love
Don Henley - All She Wants To Do Is Dance
Foreigner - Urgent
George Thorogood & The Destroyers - Bad To The Bone
Haircut 100 - Favorite Shirts
Hall & Oates - Your Imagination
Huey Lewis & The News - I Want A New Drug
INXS - Original Sin, Radiate, What You Need
Kim Carnes - More Love
Madness - One Step Beyond
Phil Collins - I Missed Again
[b]Psychedelic Furs - Heartbeat[/b][/i] <blink>[b]Quarterflash - Harden My Heart</blink>[/b]
The Doobie Bros - Real Love
The Motels - Only The Lonely
The Rolling Stones - If I Was A Dancer (Pts 1 & 2)
Wham - I'm Your Man

So many great sax songs in the 80's but the one I never get tired of hearing is Tears For Fears' "The Working Hour".

:sweet:

And when dancing to this tune, you keep your arms by your side as if they were dead meat, tilt your head back slightly, look at nothing, wear the expression of frightening apathy (and slight boredom) and simply bend your knees in time to the music. We were so coooooool.

Heh heh heh.

I was listening to Deaf School's "Taxi" when I opened this post. It has a great sax solo. In fact Deaf School used it a lot.

Anyone know what saxophone Andy Hamilton uses when performing with Duran Duran? Tenor? Alto? Soprano?
