It was Stuart Maconie writing in the spoof NME gossip column that said Holness played sax on Baker Street.
Within days the daily papers were reporting it as gospel.

My fave sax solo is the one at the end of Hazel O' Conner's "Will You"

Unless I've been fooled by some spoof column all these years, it was her brother on sax.

Died not too long I think.
