Very few people know about Don Myrick.
Some of his most famous saxophone solos include Phil Collins': "All of My Life", "If Leaving Me Is Easy" and "One More Night", the latter even featuring Myrick performing the sax solo in the official music video, filmed in a London pub.

[b]Myrick was fatally shot in Los Angeles, California by a Santa Monica policeman during a narcotics investigation. While attempting to serve a search warrant, Police Officer Gary Barbaro mistook a butane lighter in Myrick's hand for a weapon.[/b] He fired a single bullet that hit Myrick in the chest. Myrick died in the hospital shortly afterward, aged 53 years.
Listen to the genius at the beginning and end of this song.
