In my early teens I stumbled upon Charlie Parker, stuff like Salt Peanuts made a big impact.

The past decade or so I've been enjoying Pharaoh Sanders, John Gilmour & others......only just stating to really appreciate the genius of John.

The past few years Albert Ayler has made me smile even more than Charlie, John (Coltrane or Gilmour), or Pharaoh did with this & this sorta stuff.

I'm a big fan of John Coltrane but the noises Albert makes on his horn seem to often be a wonderful step beyond John.

Who are your sax heroes and which tracks do you love and return to?

Seconded on Milestones. My favorite sax solo.
