John L Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Lightning Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Nice! Isn't Kenny G too much of an easy target, though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceH Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Yeah, but we're talking Wayne's World here, not Shakespeare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDK Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 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." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris olivarez Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 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.

robviti Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 For those who didn't know, Gary Larson is a jazz fan and a musician. He retired The Far Side at the height of its popularity in 1994 to pursue his love of jazz guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Now a *daring* comic strip would have a character complaining about Charlie Parker playing "too many notes." 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!

Daniel A Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 You know, up to a few years ago I actually thought Kenny G and Kenny Garrett were the same person... I suppose I hadn't made too much effort checking out Garrett's playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reviewer: Ferrara Brain Pan from Frisco, Baby This is without a doubt The Greatest Record Of All Time... DTMX: Frisco Kid's thesaurus lists "adrenalin" as a synonym for "narcolepsy" ------------------ Other reviews for Kenny G Live 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 (edited) I once read an article on Mosaic that said that Gary Larson and Matt Groening were Mosaic's two best customers. Bertrand. 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 !
