3032887, Sax hasn't been a mainstay of guitar-driven music since the early '60s

think of all those 80s songs with the sax solos... none of them are really "guitar songs," you know?
At the same time that was happening, the guitar-driven styles (harder rock, hair metal, punk, college rock or 80s 'alternative') didn't have sax solos in large measure.
In RnB, the move away from live instrumentation certainly didn't help the sax's prioritization.
