Heard this on the way to work today. Hope he has a speedy recovery and can play again.

FWIW, the author of that article is a moron.

Over the course of his decades-long career, Clemons made the sax cool.

WTF? The sax has always been cool and it was not Clemons that made it cool.

This is sad. Every cut of "Spirits in the Night" or "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out" features CC just tearing it up.
