Geist Infection: The Saxophone

I have been a huge supporter of the return of the saxophone into pop music. We are in desperate need of a saxophone renaissance. A “sax-aissance” if you will — and I think my prayers are being answered. First off, to add to the Gaga oversaturation in the zeitgeist, I have to commend her for...

The song was written by same-sex kisser Katy Perry, but, true to “Since U Been Gone” form, Kelly works...
