Name your favorite sax solo.

How about this one: there's a wild long solo on a song on Don Ellis:Live at the Filmore. I don't recall the song's name but it was wild and loose as was the whole concert that night. Those who know Don Ellis will know what I mean. Sorry I don't have the name at my fingertips.

Coleman Hawkins has so many beyond "Body & Soul". "Self Portrait" from the "Meets Duke Ellington" album and virtually all of "Hawk Flies High" come to mind. Also Cannonball Adderly has a bunch of great ones, but I particularly like "Can't Get Started" from the Nancy Wilson LP. Boy, there are a lot out there.

The late Grover Washington Jr / Live at the Bijou

The Crusaders / Scratch..."So Far Away" is it Wilton Felder or Wayne Henderson who holds that one note like forever.

Gregg Allman / Laid Back..."Queen of Hearts"

Cannonball Adderley on the Nancy Wilson Album of 1962--the song, "Can't Get Started". One of the best ever solos. It is stylistically similar to the Charlie Parker works of a half a decade earlier. Certainly Cannonball was, as all artists must be, influenced by his works. Beautiful...just beautiful...Haunting really.

So many great solos. I agree with Lrsky, beatiful solo by Cannonball on "Can't Get Started". Check out Cannonbal on Mile's "Live At The Plaza". On the tune "Straight No Chaser", Cannonball is on fire.
