The soprano sax on this is indeed real (Mel Collins) - the Gizmo 'tenor sax' occurs during the stampede scene on the first disc, over the section where the percussion is replaced by the electronic plink/ping sounds (the Gizmo run through a Kepex gate, triggered by the drum tracks).

That ain't no saxophone that's Godley and Creme up to their tricks! More than likely the Gizmo is making the sax sound and apparently some rustling cigarette paper LOL but apparently Mel Collins is rasping away which is funny since they are faking what he does so well.

Oh golly you beat me to the punch! Isn't that the best part of 10cc? Zappa meets The Beatles! Now that is avant garde idea! But yes this is absolutely Uncle Meat with some lovely vocals. 10cc may have been able to dominate the world if this quartet would have remained intact! Pink Floyd in scope but the 80s were cruel to our heroes from the 60s

The album began as a demonstration record for the 'Gizmotron', or Gizmo. This was an electric guitar effect device that Godley and Creme had invented a few years earlier as a means of providing orchestral textures, because the band at that stage could not afford to hire orchestral players to augment their recordings. The Gizmo was an electro-mechanical device which was clamped over the bridge of an electric guitar; it contained six small motor-driven toothed plastic wheels that, when pushed into contact with the strings, created a 'bowing' effect, producing notes and chords with endless sustain that, with additional audio effects treatment and overdubbing, could emulate violins, violas, cellos and basses. Godley and Creme had begun work on songs for the Gizmo before leaving 10cc, but quit the band when they realised the songs could not comfortably appear on 10cc albums. The album was recorded over 18 months at Strawberry Studios in Stockport and The Manor in Shipton-on-Cherwell, Oxfordshire, with Godley, Creme and engineer Martin Lawrence going to extraordinary lengths to create its special effects. At one point, to create the impression that the listener is inside a coffin during a burial, a binaural "head" microphone unit was placed behind a board at the foot of a flight of stairs, while Godley shovelled sand on to it. Three days were spent producing a saxophone sound from an electric guitar; each note of a guitar solo was recorded separately and faded in on the track, which was then sent through a speaker and out of a rubber hose with perforated cigarette paper at the end. Enough pressure was displaced by forcing the sound through the holes of the cigarette paper to give the rasp of a saxophone. Direct quote taken from Wikipedia.
