RIP Gerry Rafferty - here's a great song of his that ISN'T Baker Street...

... although it still features a terrific sax solo.

I posted a Thin Lizzy clip last night and only realised today that it's 25 years since we lost Phil Lynott (died 4th Jan 86). In keeping with the "absent friends" theme, here's my favourite Gerry Rafferty song. I hope it will make a change for you if you've heard Baker Street about a hundred times this week. RIP Gerry.

You're very welcome, glad you liked it.

I'm always surprised at the number of people who don't know this song. It's an absolute classic, imo.

That is a great tune. It reached #21 on the U.S. charts in 1979.
