Let's Talk About Sax Baby

Following on from my award winning thread on Covid where discussions have recently turned to the saxophone I wondered what the wider GC community thought of it.

I quite like a saxophone, particularly in rock & roll & doowop songs but what about you lot? Are you fond of a bit of jazz/easy listening? Does Baker Street tick your box or maybe Hazel O'Connor's Lately (Edit - it is Will You, ya nob) tickles your fancy?

Lately (Edit - it's Will You twat) was the song of choice during the Erection Section at the youth club disco when I was a nipper, you'd get to tongue Mandy and give her an over the jumper tit squeeze with the soaring sound of the sax playing as an accompaniment to your teenaged fumblings.

I like it depending on type of music it is used on ie Ska = good . Kenny G = bad .

 

I’ll wait till I hear Drew’s thoughts before commenting.

 

I’ll step in:

<drewmode>It’s ****, only gays n darkies like the sax . ****ing useless twats that play it . It’s just a horrendous loud sound that over compensates for their lack of talent .

now where are my biscuits .<drewmode>

 

I have to agree

 

And pooves, don't forget the pooves

Edit - sorry, you did mention pooves.

The Beatles, always mention the Beatles too

 

Careless Whisper for us younguns

 

The saxaphone is one of my favourite musical instruments.

"Will You" by Hazel O'Connor, the saxaphone solo in this is IMHO the classic in a pop song.

Love the saxaphone.

 

Your Latest Trick - Dire Straits

 

What the f.uck did I call it? Oh, Lately. What a nob. Thanks for the correction.

 

I didn't want to correct you as I'm a really amenable guy.

I suspected this was the song you meant.

Take care.

 

Bill Clinton plays the sax

 

Him on the sax and Monica on the pink oboe.

 

I like how stupid people think the sax is a brass instrument. Idiots.
