RIP Gerry Rafferty

The Foo Fighters version is too dark and the melody is muddy.

I was never a fan of the sax, but it took Baker Street and B*tch by the Stones to gain acceptance. I can only imagine the thoughts of other successful musicians/bands that year, upon hearing the passion in Baker Street, and inspiration it created!

...wisdom through spirits

Yeah, probably one of the most well known saxophone melody lines in a pop song. It really added to the song. I don't think it would have had the same effect with a lead guitar line playing the same melody. Saxophones were everywhere for a bit after that.
