The original version of this song is called Yakety Sax, and is played on saxophone by Boots Randolph. This cover version of the song is called Yakety Axe because it's played on a guitar (a guitar can be called an "axe").

To me this is one of the best guitar songs ever recorded and played as only the Master could. Dave

Whatever happened to that b/w 1965 version of this tune? When I click on it, this is what I get: -"...removed due to terms of use violation". What kind of nonsense is that? Anybody?

this song is originally yakety sax played with a saxaphone. chet changed it to yakety axe because the guitar is also known as an axe. (a slang term)
