What is the Best Saxophone Song?

[Loren Booda]

Ain't Nobody by Chaka Khan

 

[Astronuc]

A short one. Nice chords. I think they could have done much more with this tune - something symphonic. Buts it's a prelude to another tune on the album.

The Alan Parsons Project - Voyager


Voyager + What Goes Up

 

[Quincy]

Any nirvana song or rhcp would make it for me :D

Here's a great song that I listen to a lot lately, most of you probably don't listen to this type of music but HEYYYYY what cha gon' do.

haha yeah I don't usually listen to rap but I must say, that song is pretty good.

 

[aPhilosopher]

Phish - Chalk Dust Torture

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mI5dqGcpq8

This is what Punk sounds like when a band that understands music theory plays it. Notice the ever-present Jazz undertones.

Phish - Rift
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1FgbZTmA-Q

This is one of their most brilliant songs. Classical over tones. If you check nothing else in this post, pop into this one at 3:00 to catch the end of the build up to Page's solo and his solo. Brilliant.

Rodrigo y Gabriela have just released new album - 11:11

[Sorry!]

haha yeah I don't usually listen to rap but I must say, that song is pretty good.

i especially love the video :D ;) haha. Drake is crazy though never knew he had the stuff he's comin out wit in him... he used to be an actor for this like teen drama type show of going to high school called Degrassi...

here's another good song my girlfriend got me listening to hah:

 

[BobG]

I like the Wilderness Plots CD made by Tim Grimm, Tom Roznowski, Michael White, Krista Detor, and Carrie Newcomer. The songs came from stories from Scott Russell Sanders's book, Wilderness Plots.

The best, Aurora Means Dawn, isn't on youtube, but it is on this myspace page (you have to select the song to play): http://www.myspace.com/wildernessplots

Great lyrics and a very beautiful performance by Tim Grimm and Krista Detor

We all must find the road that takes us to our destiny
and I'm not sure of where it starts or stops but that I want you there with me
and though it's far away, so far away, much farther than we've ever been
Aurora's calling me, I hear it, don't you hear it calling on the wind

...

though in the storm I nearly lost my faith in everything you promised me
in the dawn I saw that nothing that I truly love was lost to me
Aurora means the dawn and everything I truly love is here with me.

A couple other songs from the album:

More Than I Dare Say (Krista Detor)
One Woman and a Shovel (Carrie Newcomer]
Ice Mountains and Hairy Elephants (all)

Like many PFers of "a certain age," I grew up listening to Motown. Aaahh, lovely music.

I heard this on my way home from work today. Haven't heard it in a long time. So, so nice.
