Sax part to Low Rider!?!
Question: I'm in eighth grade and I like to go to football games to hang with the high school band and sometimes play along with them. Any ways, they play an awesome version of the chorus of Low Rider for pepband, and a few of my friends and I asked our band director if we could play it for our basketball pepband, and he said yes, but we'd have to put it together our selves. I play trumpet, and I know all the brass parts, but I don't know the sax part(which is a way crazy part!). Can any one help me? A link or something, or the notes spelt out, then i can go and put it on my music composer. Please help!
The key we play in is concert Eb if that'll help.

There are probably at least 10 different versions of it out there, so we can't tell you what part it is. Also, any publication of it would be illegal, and unless you have $100,000 to blow for stealing them, I wouldn't recommend it. Here are the better options.
a. talk to a saxophone player and get the part
b. sound it out
OK, I spelled it out for you and I gave you a couple things I would do to help remember it if it was me -- hope this helps :-)
G G G G G Ab Bb (notice there's 5 G's, then up to Ab) Eb G Ab G Eb
repeat
Db Db Db Db Db (5 Db's in the phrase, then 5 more in the pattern, then one more, then up to Eb) Db Db Db Db Db Db Eb
repeat
Have fun!
