The sax solo part is good to muck around with - just play something in C# and then later in D over the top of the last 8 "Hot Patootie"s. The version of the song that I worked this out from was on : "The Rocky Horror Pictur Show" Soundtrack CD (Music from the original soundtrack of the 20th century fox presentation of the Michael White/Lou Adler Production) In my opinion this is the best version of the "Show" with the fab Tim Curry - not to mention a foxy Susan Sarandon!
