MARTY FRIEDMAN = KENNY G?

marty friedman kenny g Thanks to longtime MS supporter and Mister Booze proprietor Hibernum for this shocking discovery. Have you ever seen Marty Friedman and Kenny G together? I think not. As further evidence, Hibernum posits that some of Friedman’s solo material is suspiciously Kenny G-ish. Not sure if I really hear it but I suppose there’s a case to be made there.

    Nah. Aside from their looks, I don’t think there’s anything similar about their aesthetics. Friedman’s place in metal is far more secure than Kenny G’s has been among kvlt jazz dudes.

      I might not be an expert on jazz but I’ve never understood the outright contempt some jazz fans have for him.

        It’s because he makes safe elevator music rather than pushing boundaries. He’s the jazz Nickelback.

          Kenny G is NOT jazz, he plays light- to- digest-/-chew-and spit sway-pop music on which happens to be an alto sax. Jonh Coltrane IS jazz. Miles Davis IS jazz. Thelonious Monk IS jazz, John Mclaughlin IS jazz, Nils Petter Molvaer IS Jazz, Esbjörn Svensson IS jazz, Ella Fitzerald IS jazz…etc etc…Kenny G is POP

    No wonder he now lives in Japan. They eat this shit up.

    You know the difference between Kenny G and an automatic rifle? The rifle only repeats itself 700 times per minute.

    • Heavy Metal

      We need to have Kenny G start making rifles.
