Hi Peter,
I work professionally as a keyboard player, playing mainly Smooth Jazz styles along the lines of Brian Culbertson, Bob James, Bob Baldwin, David Benoit, Chuck Loeb , Rick Braun, Brian Hughes etc etc
I'm sure lots of us would love some new styles along the lines of these artists

thanks

Mal

A gratuitous plug here for my absolute favourite smooth jazz outfit: the Canadian band Four 80 East.! If you haven't heard them please take a listen.

LOL. But... he knows circular breathing! He's gotta be a genius, right?
;-)

Say what you want about Kenny G, but his commercial success is pretty impressive, irrespective of his questionable mastery of bebop lines. If he's true to himself, and is playing the kind of music he wants to play, more power to him.

I'll welcome RealTracks emulations of his rhythm section, but I guess I could do without the soprano sax solos...
