@frogman - Put your cursor over the album image to watch the You Tube progress line using the link below for the track, "Genesis".
Around the 3 min 30 sec mark (after the bass solo starting at 2:10/2:12), a sax solo starts. My ear might not be that great distinguishing tenor from alto, esp if tenor is being played in the upper register, but regardless, after a slow build, this solo unfolds its wings and really flies.
The subsequent transition into Freddie’s solo is striking as it is so seamless. Sax morphing into trumpet...or is that flugelhorn? :-)

I’m aware of the Varese/Zappa connection. Don’t wanna set on fire the hair of any of the orthodox faithful here but got to think Frank and Wayne were listening to similar things around this time.
Thanks to Alexatpos for those links.
