First of all, it's outrageous that Mel Collins was excluded from this poll. Outrageous! With that said, it's got to be Jimmy Hastings for his work on Caravan and Squire's Fish Out of Water. F'ing awesome. And be more careful next time.

I wonder if the rest of PA members are tired of me and you putting Toby's name in every thread they can think of. LOL
But can they blame us? He needs to be mentioned...


Edit: ...on every thread they can think of! Wink


It's not our fault he's so good and does so much amazing and diverse work!

David Gilmour plays sax (On an Island and Live in Gdansk)
Rick Wright played trombone (Jugband Blues).

Two great missings from the list.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Everyone and more (Ian Underwood?) is fine but Ian Anderson is the only one who got to be great  and then actually improved (learned how to play it properly) around Roots To Branches and onward.

Now the funniest "wind" solo - I sincerely hope this is apochryphal but it could be true -  is a piece on a Warren Zevon album, not strictly an instrument really....but ... wind... In the form of a flatus which was recorded, synthesized and used as a solo.

Transcribe that!LOL

Ian McDonald is wonderful. A clear winner. If you haven't listed to it, try Mcdonald and Giles album. Wonderful KC spin off!
