    I personally think Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty is, its so colourful, but what do you think is the no. 1, top 3's, 5's 10's etc are also welcome

    I'd have to change my mind on the My Favourite Things one and go for Giant Steps by Coltrane....love playing that tune!

    Fair enough but this is a Jazz/Blues forum and the only thing jazzy about baker st is the fact theres a sa playing....and dave mathiews and huey lewis aren't exactly Jazz ethir....

    Anyone got any Jazz sax tunes they'd like to share?

    Well just adding to the non jazz briefly 'What does it take?' by Jnr Walker and the All Stars is amazing and back to Jazz for 'sax and song' surely nothing can beat the John Coltrane/Johnny Hartman album - tracks from which also appear on a lovely album called the Gentle Side of John Coltrane.
