    The Saxophone Orchestra of Great Britian.

    It's not jazz, but there are enough saxophones to suit your fancy. Look them up on G--gle, I think they've got some excerpts on their website.

    want a little Skerik?
    with band names alone, he's worth the twisted price of admission: Crack Sabbath, Dead KennyGs, Black Frames (we call it Satan's Lounge Band at home) Ponga and Garage a Trois. Skerik (def of the John Zorn sqwonky sax line) is a dark creepy force in the nicest of ways.

    Its not pure Saxophone, but if you're into sax and horns, Tower of Power is a must

    I was searching my campus-wide filesharing network the other day for a candy dulfer album that I used to own but got stolen - and came across an album entiteld "Sax for Sex". Track list looked promising. Candy Dulfer was on there, hence the search result, as well as Eric Marienthal, David Sanborn, Spyro Gyra, and even Kenny Sodding G. Thought 'this has got to be worth a look, even for a laugh'. Imagine my disappointment when I got a load of badly synthesised pop tunes that didn't even match the titles of the songs. And the sad thing was that when I asked the chap from whom I'd downloaded the files he just pointed me to a link with the tracklist on there and said no more. He must have genuinely believed he was listening to these great players (and kenny G too!). Poor bastard.

    Some more good Sax Music,

    Ginger Baker's Air Force- He's got 3 great sax players; Graham Broad on alto sax, Chris Wood of Traffic on Tenor Sax and Flute, and Harold McNair on Baritone Sax.

    And The Line-Up Itself Is Basically The Greatest Supergroup ever created:
    Ginger Baker- Drums
    Phil Seaman- Drums
    Remi Kabaka- Drums/Percussion
    Ric Grech- Bass/Violin
    Steve Winwood- Organ/Vocals
    Denny Laine- Guitar/Vocals
    Jeanette Jacobs- Vocals
    and the great afformentioned Sax Section.
