This topic might take some research & thought:

I'll start with one of my favorites:

Born To Run by Bruce & Clarence

Walking In My Sleep - Roger Daltrey 

Sax solo - Michael Brecker

[Tonster521]

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.
