SAX SECTION with TENOR solo #3 LAST NIGHT-MAR-KEYS GILBERT CAPLE (SOLO) TENOR CHARLES “PACKY” AXTON TENOR FLOYD NEWMAN BARITONE According to Jerry Wexler, Smoochy Smith, Duck Dunn, and Estelle Axton, early versions of the song did not have a tenor sax solo featured on the released 45. Supposedly Wexley heard an early take and suggested that a sax solo be added. Gilbert Caple was given the job. This was his first solo he had ever recorded and consequently Caple was somewhat scared. “We worked so long that night that everybody got disgusted” sighed Caple. Cable states that the solo that is heard on the record was actually pieced together from several different attempts. Floyd is the one that said, “Awww, last night”. http://www.memphisflyer.com/memphis/b-side-players/Content?oid=1135862 http://books.google.com/books?id=XLdsRwpZ9oYC&pg=PA26&lpg=PA26&dq=THE+MAR-KEYS+-+Last+Night+sax+solo&source=bl&ots=RS7iwOmQeM&sig=k9TTBwCEsSQIckkhF3qRz4g0i0g&hl=en&ei=XLEvTb-DEZPQgAfNreBa&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CDUQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=THE%20MAR-KEYS%20-%20Last%20Night%20sax%20solo&f=false #14 LAZY RIVER-BOBBY DARIN ?
