    "You Belong To The City" - Glen Frey (sp?) off Miami Vice Movie Soundtrack
    "Tequila" - The Champs (or was it The Drifters?) (featured on Pee-Wee's Big Adventure)

    Ah, those '80's movies and their influence on my musical taste. ;)

    "Santa Claus is Comin' To Town" - Bruce Springsteen and the "E" Street Band (played / plays every Christmas)

    all I can think of that weren't listed

    "Baker Street" and "Your Latest Trick" are the right answers.

    Does the sax have to be dominant to be considered?

    if not I could include some J Geils stuff..

    but if so...I would definitely agree that Baker Street is my favorite song with a dominant sax part.

    I also second DoD's mention of Quarterflash..I saw them with Sammy in 82..and Rindy Ross was great live!

    also deserving mention..some good stuff from Steely Dan.
    particularly the sax solo in FM..

    Jazz stuff can't count, otherwise we'd have to list 1292 songs before the first rock or pop song showed up. I mean, how can a Stones song compare with St. Thomas?

    Pete Christlieb, eccentric former tenor man for the Tonight Show band in the 70s. Also did the solo on "Deacon Blues."
