There are so many songs featuring outstanding sax musicians. To pick just one is a challenge. However, one song that jumped out at me goes back to the mid-1970s. It was a standard at most clubs, disco(s),etc.that when played, you had to claim your 1 square foot on the dance floor.It is Pick Up The Pieces by AWB. The sax solo was performed by Molly Duncan. There was an 18 minute version as well.

I don't think that the sax on Urgent could be topped.  

 

My couple of picks are:  Sad Cafe by The Eagles (David Sanborn - Alto Sax)

                                       Ding Dong Ding Dong by George Harrison
