I love the sax playing of Jan Garbarek, but even in his most haunting and melodic moments and recordings, he doesn't come within a mile of this piece. Truly sublime.
wesley magoogan , (the guy who did the original for hazel) had an accident with a very large circular saw, and although they did re attach his fingers he can only use one hand now....I didnt think the original could possibly be more moving till I found that out......
Driving home from a school trip early 8o's - kissing Heather Illingdon at the back of the coach, this track playing on the radio. No matter where I am and what I'm doing. This sax solo always makes me stop and listen. Pure genius and class. And I'm a nu-metal guitar player!!!!! Thankl you for this memory.

Same here cunn16, although it wasn't Heather Illingdon..lol. But when I hear it I'm taken straight back in time, good memories.

Fine performance....and fantastic sound quality.
A tad lacking in power perhaps in certain places (when compared to the original) but beautiful nonetheless.

Well done Roger! You were always a great player in the 1960's, so Im glad that you dug your sax out of the attic & rediscovered your talent!
