I have an old record album by a musical sawyer named Jim Turner. He covers everthing from old-time country to classical, there's even a concerto written for musical saw, backed up the the Boulder, CO symphony orchestra. I don't know why it wasn't a million seller.

Just finished listening to the Jim Turner record - The Well-Tempered Saw- it is am amazing opus well worth listening to! The puns in this thread are great but the music is even more entertaining. Try it - you might even like it!

I suppose Barbershop would be performed on a razor saw.

When playing saw in duet with a didgeridoo, you could do a pretty good version of the Dr Who theme, I would think!

A link i posted earlier (years ago!) was to a performer, Robert Armstrong, who played musical saw in the sound track of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest movie. http://www.armstrongartandnoveltyhut.com/
He used to play with R. Crumb, the cartoonist, and his Cheap Suit Serenaders. He now plays with Sourdough Slim, the yodelling cowboy accordion player.

I have an attachment for my weed eater that is an extension "pole" saw for trimming upper limbs. I often call it my pole slaw.....
