Chicago Song - David Sanborn (1987)

"Chicago Song" was the lead track and most well-known single release from "A Change Of Heart", a studio album by David Sanborn released in 1987. The album reached number 74 on the Billboard 200, number 43 on Billboard's R&B Albums chart and number 3 on the Top Contemporary Jazz Albums chart. David Sanborn (born July 30, 1945) is an American alto saxophonist. Though Sanborn has worked in many genres, his solo recordings typically blend jazz with instrumental pop and R&B. One of the most commercially successful American saxophonists to earn prominence since the 1980s, Sanborn is often identified with radio-friendly smooth jazz. Sanborn was born in Tampa, Florida, and grew up in Kirkwood, Missouri. He suffered from polio in his youth, and began playing the saxophone on a physician's advice to strengthen his weakened chest muscles and improve his breathing. Alto saxophonist Hank Crawford, at the time a member of Ray Charles' band, was an early and lasting influence on Sanborn. Sanborn performed with blues musicians Albert King and Little Milton at the age of 14, and continued playing blues when he joined Paul Butterfield's band in 1967, after attending the University of Iowa. Although Sanborn is most associated with smooth jazz, he explored the edges of free jazz in his youth, studying with saxophonists Roscoe Mitchell and Julius Hemphill. In his three-and-a-half decade career, Sanborn has released 24 albums, won six Grammy awards and has had eight Gold albums and one Platinum album, and he continues to be one of the most highly active musicians of his genre.

I wanted to make a commercial for American Motors, using this song. The commercial would have had someone driving an AMC Spirit AMX on a highway, with this song playing. No talking, just different shots of the car, and this cool song playing along.
