On a somewhat related note I was listening to a Lee Ritenour “station” on Apple Music last night—nice stuff, but I kept thinking, when are the really good guitar solos going to start?

I think Kenny G deserves a tribute band!
Anyone up for it?

Btw. Whenever a brilliant musician goes on interviews and starts talking... its 50:50 chance it'll be cringe.
Musicians are not good talkers. Thats a good thing

I found a video on youtube of KG playing along with a video of LA singing Wonderful World.
I found nothing disrespectful about it.
I love Louis' version. Kenny put on a horn part that sort of went with the song. It wasn't necessary, but it wasn't a felonious assault either.
I heard an interview with KG in which he was appropriately modest about his music. He talked about his efforts to improve his playing, not how great he was or how great somebody else wasn't.
