Like Hewy Lewis and Springsteen?

+0001. There are no bad songs with sax solos.

What the world needs now is love, sweet love. Followed by a sax solo.

jazzrat2000.bsky.social•88 days ago

definitely. what's a sax solo?

rebeccafachner.bsky.social•88 days ago

Does it though?

citronmelisse.bsky.social•88 days ago

You better be serious about this because this *is* serious.

Trumpets. Way cooler.

Who can it be now?

hectoroftroy.bsky.social•88 days ago

Pitch this to Bill Clinton. He plays the sax.

didntcmecumin69.bsky.social•88 days ago

Anything Brass work’s and David Sanborn came to mind or Kenny G maybe.

Throw back to the 80’s

Have you heard the Gunner's Dream by Pink Floyd? The way Roger Waters voice blends into the sax solo is something else.

A place to stay
Enough to eat
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street
Where you can speak out loud about your doubts and fears
No one ever disappears
You never hear the standard issue kicking in the doors
You can relax on both sides of the tracks

drakenescio.bsky.social•88 days ago

And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control
Everyone has recourse to the law...
And no one kills the children anymore...
No one kills the children anymore

I hope to never understand firsthand how Waters changed in those 40+ years.

"AND HOLD ON TO THE DREAM...."

jbmanitoba.bsky.social•88 days ago

Right at that point. Oh man, it gives me chills whenever I hear that part. I just get lost in that sax solo.

You mean 80s music?...the best music

izabellaalicea.bsky.social•88 days ago

On Apple Music

I think before summer gets here we need a new Seals & Crofts. Soothing lyrics, harmonies for miles, unique instruments, bittersweet nostalgia for when we were young and our knees worked. I want to hear real floaty sundress and sandals songs. I want gentle breezes and sweet summer rains. 😞

annescheer.bsky.social•88 days ago

Short but sweet.

Great idea!

trixiebelden75.bsky.social•88 days ago

Agree

aditch.bsky.social•88 days ago

Give O.A.R. a try. Not necessarily “pop” but great music

radbradley.bsky.social•88 days ago

More groove Less strut.

kirachimera.bsky.social•88 days ago

We need the next wave of Ska

This is one careless whisper right here

Sax solo?

Urgent by Foreigner

At 2:35 if you want to skip the cheesy video

succubusking.bsky.social•88 days ago

Not pop, but the sax solo at the end of this song gets me so turnt. I'm happy to say that I got to see this song performed live and it was everything I ever dreamed of.

cancon70.bsky.social•88 days ago

Not pop, but a killer sax solo at 2:40. So much of the new music I discover lately has a sax.

Not sure this qualifies as pop but Branford Marsalis…

Lady Gaga Edge of Glory is so underrated

More Dave Matthews band

You might like this one, a sax-y tribute to playing racing video games in Bill Clinton’s 1990s era. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vU6cOF65lU0

Listen to 'The Strike'

eevis396783.bsky.social•88 days ago

And these solos delivered by a muscular, shirtless guy with long curly hair à la Lost Boys.

kirik411.bsky.social•88 days ago

Where’s the new Huey Lewis and the News album. Still waiting

trawna.com•87 days ago

Have you got _Weather_? That’s likely to be his last, given his Ménière’s diagnosis. 😢

kirik411.bsky.social•87 days ago

So sorry to hear that. He’s my favorite.

TRUTH

boover.bsky.social•88 days ago

Well, don't know any "pop" sax solo's but, The Purple Lagoon from Zappa's In New York album and Ian Underwoods sax solo in the extended live version of Billie The Mountain (Studebaker Hoch).
