Inspired by Hayden Schott's selection of Careless Whisper (1984) as his walk-up music, here's a thread where we can post our favorite music from the '80s that prominently features saxophone.

It's probably more fun to post your most favorite, and leave your secondary choices for others to post.

I'm sure my choice won't be the most popular, but I have to go with Vangelis' Love Theme (1982) from Blade Runner. It stirs emotions and comes from a great film.

What's yours?

Do the late '70s count? Because, Baker Street.

With rounding to the '80s and being played and popular in the '80s, I think it should count.

Just no '90s Billy Joel...

Try to post a link so others can hear for themselves.

You can't talk about the sax in the 1980's without discussing this iconic musical scene from this iconic movie.....

When I saw this in the theater in 87, I fully admit I was a bit taken back watching a long haired body builder jamming on the sax at a beach concert. But it was the 80's, and California, and 80's California was the apex of awesome.

Who Can It Be Now

What a great one, MSFC! The sax goes all the way through the song too, and not just for hook…
