Name your favorite sax solo.

My personal favorite is Coleman Hawkins playing over Mood Indigo on Duke Ellington Meets Coleman Hawkins (Impulse). Gotta be one of the best things ever recorded. Melodic, technincal, beautiful... He was awsome even when he was just mailing it in. You can never have too much Hawk!

I have the vinyl edition and the sound is superb. Check eBay sometimes copies show up there. But be prepared to bid aggresively, it is highly sought after.
