Songs With a Great Brass Riff, Solos, or Beautiful Melodic Hooks - Sax, Trumpets, etc.

[Scud49]

A great brass blast from the past:

 

[Bigboote]

This is one of my favorite cuts from Miles. Coltrane and Cannonball are on the saxes.

 

[Bigboote]

Louis Armstrong with my favorite version of St Louis Blues. I love the energy.

It was a little before my time I think, and I hope I'm talking about the right song, but doesn't Arthur's Theme have a beautiful sax part to it?
I don't know why that popped into my head. It wasn't really me favorite genre of music, but I loved that song. In may in part be because I associate it with trips to Cape Cod when I was young.

 

[Ozimoto]

Forgot this one. The intro with horns is kickin'.

The Who weren't known for their horns, but this song is an exception. It's also unusual in that John Entwistle was the ENTIRE horn section.

[Woof 101]

I waited as long as I could for a country song with horns to be mentioned ; )
