One of my favorite songs, "Skin I'm In", had horns but they weren't as prominent as those in the earlier records.

Here is a Cameo song that has their horns on full display. I used to wonder if they manipulated the sound in production to make them this tight but when I saw them in concert, it sounded close to the record.

Nicely funky song. And very tight horns.

Also Jerry I get what you mean about the manipulated horn sounds... I get that on some songs where the horns feel kinda synthesised...
