Van der Graaf Generator had a unique sound consisting of sax, organ, drums and voice. There is a video of their version of "Theme One" where the sax/flute player David Jackson can be seen playing two saxophones (alto and tenor i think) at the same time.

Pretty much anything by Madness to be honest - Lee Thompson's sax adds so much to their sound

I've seen Mel Collins loads of times with Kokomo, do you know they are gigging again?

I remember watching a guy playing two saxophones simultaneously on top of the pops years ago.

Think it was Ian Dury and the BlockHeads Hit me with your Rhythm Stick.
