Happy Sunday everybody!
Happy birthday to Jazz and session saxophonist Curtis Amy. Curtis is most famous for the closing sax solo on The Doors’ Touch Me. He also played with Ray Charles, Carole King, Lou Rawls, among others, and often worked together with his wife, vocalist Merry Clayton (Stones - Gimme Shelter). Curtis also played the solo on The Doors live performance on The Smothers Brothers. It’s one of the best known sax riffs in Rock & Roll.
