My favourite song.

Trying To Hold On To My Woman was recorded both by Lamont himself, and by Garland Green.

I have both albums in front of me. Ernie Watts played the sax solo on the Garland Green version, Lamont is credited for rhythm arrangements along with Hense Powell.

On Lamont's own album, whilst Ernie Watts is credited, it appears that John Kelson performed the sax solo.

The actual credit reads as:

Sax, Flute, Oboe [[Sax Solo) John Kelson, John Daversa, Jules Jacob, Ernest Watts, Anthony Ortega, Fred Jackson, Ernest Green.

[[ I always thought Ernie Watts was responsible for both solos until I checked the album credits).
