Pat Metheny on Kenny G

Richard Thompson Agrees with Pat

Comments:
What's a Kenny G - ? Geezuz, I knew Pat was kind of a snob, but Gee Willikers! But, if Ricardo agrees, I'm in.
 
"by spewing his lame-ass, jive, pseudo bluesy, out-of-tune, noodling, wimped out, fucked up playing all over one of the great Louis's tracks (even one of his lesser ones), he did something that I would not have imagined possible. He, in one move, through his unbelievably pretentious and calloused musical decision to embark on this most cynical of musical paths, shit all over the graves of all the musicians past and present who have risked their lives by going out there on the road for years and years developing their own music inspired by the standards of grace that Louis Armstrong brought to every single note he played over an amazing lifetime as a musician."

Take a Midol!

But I agree!
