Another from the early 70s when rock bands with hot horn sections enjoyed commercial success! Vehicle is the one-hit wonder for the Chicago-based band The Ides of March. It rose to number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart the week of May 23, 1970. It is purported to be the fastest selling single in Warner Bros. Records history.

Here we get to enjoy a great trumpet and tenor sax combo. A powerful sound, especially with the sax anchoring the low range so nicely.
