Why wouldn't his wife have called an ambulance?

she wasn't with him.  he was on tour, staying alone in a hotel.  when his wife couldn't reach him the next morning (i think he missed his flight), she got security to go check on him and they found him dead in his bed.

I think we've pretty much established as part of my sexual diagnosis that that isn't the case.

The song credits list Ian playing a baritone sax but everyone "in the know", knows it was a customized tenor sax.  Ian wasn't happy with the sound sound and didn't quite want the richness of a baritone sax so he had his sax guy, mess around with one of his 4 tenor saxes to come up with modified sax that presented the perfect sound for the song.  Listen to the mix without the sax and it is a dramatically different song.

I'm legit stunned at how good of a Hutch parody post ^^ is. Like if we had a contest to write a post in the style of Hutch, no one is beating that if they were actively trying.

I'm legit worried about hutch given his fondness for woodwinds in rock music, this should snap him out of if

RIP Ian McDonald. Your playing is all over (arguably) the greatest British rock album, the greatest British jazz album and the greatest British single. Hats off to you, sir.
