Did Greg Hawkes play sax for The Cars on any recorded track other than “All Mixed Up” on their debut album? I’m pretty sure it’s the only sax solo on any of their albums, but I’m curious if he ever added some background sax to a track and flew beneath the radar. It turns out that he went to Berklee to study composition and flute and that he played clarinet, flute, and sax very proficiently at the time. However, Ocasek seemed to like him to stick to keyboards, with an occasional odd object or noisemaker.
To clarify, I mean to include all tracks from any of their albums, not just the tracks on their debut album.
I should have paid more attention to sentence diagramming in HS, I guess.
I read somewhere recently that’s a very useful skill later in life. 
Anyway, the closing sax solo on that track is the only saxophone I can think of out of any of their songs. It has a very ‘80s feel for me, unlike most of their music which always felt like it was ahead of its time.
The album was released in 1978, so if it felt like it was ahead of its time…it was. Whenever I hear the sax solo in “True” (1983) by Spandau Ballet, I’m reminded of “All Mixed Up.”
“Gimme Some Slack” from the forgettable Panorama also has Hawkes on sax.
Am I the only person who bought Hawkes’ solo album? Not just on this board…I might be the only one anywhere.
Thank you! I’ll admit that I hardly ever listen to Panorama myself.
And, yes, I have several of Hawkes’ solo albums. The Beatles Uke (2008) is, uh, well, interesting.
I had his first solo album and listened to it quite a bit back then.
That’s the one! I wouldn’t say I listened to it a lot, but I know there were a handful of songs I liked.
