I often listen to Fats Domino. In the latest issue of the Swedish bluesmagazine "Jefferson" the Swedish pianoman Uffe Sandtröm wrote about Fats Domino. I found a nice picture (Hans Ekestang) of Fats and a band with five saxes (four tenors and one bari). I can see Lee Allen and Herb Hardesty. Who are the other saxplayers?

Beside Fats, Little Richard is also a man that worked a lot with saxes. And there is one name that appears on Fats and Little Richards recodings and that is Lee Allen. King Curtis, Red Prysock and Lee Allen were the the real Rock & Roll Saxophone players! They didn't need any guitarplayers in those days.
