Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: i have never played a duet with a guitar so i dont know the best songs!. but i did some research and i found some really great songs!. i have heard these songs played begore and it really goes well because they are slow jazz songs for the acoustic guitar and the tenor or alto saxophone!. here they are: "all of me" "lily was here" "how to take a life" if you have not heard of these songs them i suggest that you look them up on google!. if you want to hear them you might want to look it up on youtube!. i hope i could help!Www@QuestionHome@Com I don't have any specific songs in mind right now, but I would suggest looking at Dave Matthews Band songs!. Dave has a bunch of people in the band, and one plays the sax!. You could also try playing the main chords to a song on the guitar, and have the saxophone play the notes that correspond to the singing!. That would sound really cool for a lot of songs!.Www@QuestionHome@Com All the songs by Quarterflash ( a famous 80s Pop rock group) have both Sax and Electric guitar in them!. The Lead Singer Rindy Ross ( Yeap!.!.!.she's a woman) plays sax and sings lead vocals!. They have been around since 1980 and came from Washington Classic hits like: "Harden my heart" "Take me to heart" "Find another fool" and many more They are on both Youtube & Myspace www!.myspace!.com/heartofquarterflash All their old MTV vids are on Youtube too!. You can't miss it!.!.!.enjoy Www@QuestionHome@Com PInk floyd!. Although their are other instruments in the songs, "Us and Them" has a nice sax solo and as always awesome guitar!. to listen to the song go here: http://search!.playlist!.com/tracks/us%20a!.!.!. I know some of their other songs have a sax in it but i cant remember which ones!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Try this!. The song is called Baker Street, by Gerry Rafferty!. www!.youtube!.com/watch!?v=L1UOIO38Ghs listen to it!.
