I play the Saxophone, although I haven't picked it up for a while now. I also tried getting in to the guitar, but my teacher wasn't the best (great musician, just a poor teacher) so I quickly ended up putting that down.

These days the music I make comes in the form of error noises from client's machines...

Alto. I was thinking about going for something else though, if I decide to get back to music. Probably a tenor sax, as I love me some jazz!

How about you?

I got a guitar when I was 15 and took a few lessons but I just found it hard to fit in time to practice, 20 now though and I've started taking regular lessons from a friend and practice an hour most days :)

Also Alto, and I was thinking about buying a Soprano as well but I don't have that sort of disposable cash right now.

Can you play Diagnosis Murder?

I was sure it was a deeper sax that played it but can only find this

I could be wrong (I've never watched DM) but I'm pretty sure that is a Clarinet playing the music. ;) I guess you could play it on a saxophone though.

I'm sure it has been played by a sax on the shows that air here, that's why I went looking for it but could only find the Clarinet version :)

I remember wanting to learn the sax just for that song lol

I. like many others in their teens, got to playing guitar. My first was a Fender Mustang, my last a Fender Stratocaster. Then as I got older I decided to take organ lessons. To this day I hit the keyboards just about every day.
