The original by Gerry Rafferty is a classic with an incredible saxophone riff. But what if you take the sax out?
Turns out its still pretty incredible

I was unaware of this cover version of Baker Street. Is there nothing the foo cant do?

The guitar sound at @ 4:58
This is where the magic happens.

A very melodic solo with an excellent tone.
While I'm all for making major changes on a cover (I do it myself), I would have left Baker Street alone.
I don't dislike the FF cover, but I would call it inferior to the original.
