saxophone solos were outlawed in about 1990 so i still feel like i'm operating a contraband black market supply over here :dukedog:

there's also this (skip to 2:03 for most excellently 80s sax solo) :

Honestly? Not a huge fan of the lyrics on either track. There are some really good Midnight vocal tracks out there, but those two songs ain't it.

take a look overhead
You Belong to the City is unironically good, gently caress you for insinuating otherwise.

It's Baker street that sucks in it's heart, despite the cool saxophone. Glen Frey is pure 80s, Gerry Rafferty is like a 70s musical refugee that settled in the 80s.

You can do that with all the Fast and Furious movies for a similar effect.

sumthin real wrong with a man's brain when he hears something like this

and is like "nope, that's not a saxophone, son, it's just the sound of somebody repeatedly throwing a canadian goose down the stairs"

Is very snow-broth;
One who never feels
The wanton stings and
Motions of the sense



The 80s were a great time if you were a sax player but horrible if you were anyone else and didn’t want your music ruined by Clarence Clemonsish bullshit

This thread inspired me to find this.

quote:

“The song is called Opus No. 1, by Tim Carleton and Darrick Deel. It’s never been on a Top 40 list or gotten radio play, and yet it’s heard around the world by the millions of people who are placed on hold each day. Darrick and Tim’s story actually begins back in 1989, when as teenagers and friends they recorded a song in their garage. Unfortunately, they didn’t go on to rockstar fame and fortune, but years later Darrick would go on to take a job with Cisco. In his role building Cisco’s first version of IP phones, he was aware of Cisco’s need for a piece of music to use as the default hold music for the new system. Cut to several years later, and their high school composition has become the hold music for the world’s most popular phone systems with over 65 million IP phones sold. With that, Opus No. 1 has left the safety of Darrick and Tim’s childhood recording studio and entered ear worm status.”

At one point I had to listen to this a lot. Not the best of days.
