Saxofonist Raphael Ravenscroft op 60 jarige leeftijd overleden

The musician behind one of the most recognisable saxophone solos – on Gerry Rafferty’s hit Baker Street – has died aged 60.
Raphael Ravenscroft, who found fame almost overnight following the release of the 1978 track, went on to work with music icons including Pink Floyd, Abba and Marvin Gaye. More recently he worked as a session musician for pop artists Daft Punk and Duffy.

He died following a suspected heart attack early on Sunday.
