Nah I love the sax, there's just something about Floyd's delivery with it on Shine On and Money that's more late night tv than jazz and it rubs me the wrong way. I think I said it ITT already but it sounds like what white people whose exposure to jazz is limited to Bleeding Gums Murphy think jazz sounds like. Jazz doesn't own the sax but I can tell that they're incorporating it for a "jazzy" flavour and fell flat on their face with it.
