Good stuff!

I recall that fantastic scene from the Wayne's World movie. I think that Garth was having a nightmare. It was a Kenny G concert. They showed the audience of middle-aged emptied-headed suburbanites, each with the same wide empty smile on his or her face. Then they showed Garth in the middle of it all looking absolutely terrified. :g

Isn't Kenny G too much of an easy target, though?

My thoughts exactly!

Now a *daring* comic strip would have a character complaining about Charlie Parker playing "too many notes."

There was a "Far Side" cartoon where Charlie Parker was in hell and was in a sound booth that he couldn't escape from and the Devil was outside piping in Carpenters records into the sound booth.

I once read an article on Mosaic that said that Gary Larson and Matt Groening were Mosaic's two best customers.

A former music critic for The Dallas Morning News, Michael Cochran, once wrote a column about the "most overrated musicans" of all time, and included Bird (as well as Otis Redding!) on the list. His blurb was something along the lines of: "Sounded like he was making it all up as he went along. Guess what? He was."

Yeah, THAT'S astute criticism! :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

You know, up to a few years ago I actually thought Kenny G and Kenny Garrett were the same person... :rolleyes:

I suppose I hadn't made too much effort checking out Garrett's playing.

5 Stars: I highly recommend listening to it at bedtime

To those who don't like Kenny G if you don't like it then don't buy it, and don't whine it was your own stupidity for buying it why make Kenny G fans mad because of your stupidity

and

The only album from Kenny that in my opinion has a great musical value

Wasn't there mention on the BNBB of a 'Jackie McLean Pizza Co.' pizza box delivery on one of the episodes of The Simpsons. That explains it, he must have snagged a McLean CD box set ! :D

Just goes to show that Music critic standard for the Dallas Morning News aren't terribly high? Why not hire that dog that knows 200 words? :w
