This is probably old news, considering it got hyped on Woot! last week, but we felt it worth sharing with you all.
A gentleman has been kind enough to rate the saxophone solos in innumerable songs from the 1980s. Rating songs on ABCDF scale, along with notations such as appropriateness, continuity, and length, everything from Eric Carmen's "Hungry Eyes" to Wang Chung's "Dance Hall Days" gets the treatment.
Sadly, the site doesn't seem to have been updated in nearly a year, so who knows as to whether or not we'll be getting any new reviews any time soon. Enjoy what's there, and try not to cringe in recognition of some of your guilty favorites.
The site, amazing as it is, does lose points for completely ignoring the brilliant performance of Timmy Cappello on "I Still Believe" from The Lost Boys, however.

The fact that I didn't even have to exert myself to find that clip is a testimony to the amazingly useless crap that gets popular online.
This is the most batshittiest photo gallery I've ever seen.

And even though in this '87 video, Pink Floyd looks like a bunch of accountants and the sax player has a mullet of X-Men proportions, I give the solo at 3:41 a B+
