Yeah, although I think that's Barry on "Red" from Go 2. But yeah, the sax pops up a couple other times, but I'm not sure where off the top of my head. I think there's a couple tracks on Mummer, though nothing where it makes me skip because of the sax. (Though I skip stuff on Mummer for other reasons.)

I've read/got Song Stories, but it's been ages. I remember a little bit of the dance stuff, but I can't really see the Dance Mixture being an earnest attempt (or, rather, if it _is_, it's probably kinda why Andy didn't really have a dance hit, heh..). The drum track I think is a little too busy, but it _is_ cool to just basically pull out the bass riff. Perhaps that actually would make it danceable in spite of the drum track. But I don't know, I don't really dance, so..

Yeah -- in some interview, Andy mentions that he got this nasty letter about Knuckle Down from some Redneck Klansman Hick Asshole in the Southern US because it was all about how racism is bad and, Interracial Relationships Being A-OK. IIRC, the Klansman said it had a catchy beat, but if he ever saw Andy around Alabama (or wherever) he'd beat the shit out of him. IIRC, this actually pleased Andy. And I could see where it would, because I figure if you're pissing off trogolodytes like that, you're doing somethign right.
