Stranded by Van Morrison has him playing the saxophone at the beginning, middle and end(in between his vocalising ) it’s absolutely outstanding. The Rock n roll music of the 50’60’s featured lots of sax., some artists (like fats domino) had several in their band. I quite like the saxophone playing of Snake Davis and cannot separate his version of Baker Street from the original( they are both so good ) his solo on Will You is a favourite in our home.
