The reviews are really polarized on this one, and I think it's because, while I like what Kenny G plays, it's not really jazz. It's more of a jazzy pop or something like that--or maybe how singers might sing if they could sing as quickly as Kenny G can play, and if they had the range of a saxophone.

If you're into jazz, you probably won't like this, and if you're into rap/heavy metal you probably won't like it either. But if you like easy listening music--the kind that you can get lost in and that brings the most wonderful thoughts and images to mind--then you very well might like it.

This CD has twelve of Kenny G's great tunes. You're right, it's not hot jazz, what it is is relaxing, romantic mood music. This CD sounds great as background music when my man and I are sitting in front of the fire, and even better when we are in the bedroom! We love this CD, and highly recommend it to all lovers!

(Review of The Moment by Kenny G)

When it comes to Instrumentals, I am sure fond of piano by Richard Meyrick, John Mitchell, Richard Claderman's music, Yanni, Pan Pipes etc. but Kenny G is my one choice alongwith Richard Claderman. Kenny G The Moment is a an excellent saxo cum piano with not too much of electronic sounds. A light listening playing in background of your thoughts while having cool lunch or dinners alone in recluse. I would not say this jazz coz that kinda music I ain't fond of much! Real Jazz isn't Kenny G style. The duetswith Toni Braxton & Baby Face are wonderful though in this album. The moment is the Best I would rate 5 Stars closely following Havana and Innocence, a number for soft n cool feeling. Always is another fav of mine and I luv playing The Moment & Always on my synthesizer esp.when it comes to chase the blues. Another Kenny G choice is Montage with cool songs like songbird and silhouette. A pick for a calm n cool collection!

kenny gorelick is a highly talented saxophonist... and thats no understatement. its clear from his music... look at the complex runs and scales he uses. his technique is superb. now u mr bennett have no idea what you are talking about... i suggest you keep you mouth shut.

I've seen Kenny G twice in concert and he is awesome and he has a sense of humor. He plays his music with a lot of passion unfortunately many people put him in the category of jazz and try to compare him to jazz musicians when even he admits he's not jazz, oh please what they heck are you talking about most true great musicians are never heard. So you're saying The Beatles we're great, U2, Green Day, Linkin Park, and so many other bands are mediocre cause they can actually sell a CD? Please!. Kenny G is an awesome musician and he can play the sax. Now if he wasn't that good why has he sold so many records? Why has he worked with such great artists such as Babyface, Brian McKnight, Leanne Rimes, Michael Bolton, Peabo Bryson, and so many more. So before you post that he's not that good and should compare him to some other jazz musicians then yeah your'e right he's not going to win the jazz category in which he's not in he's in easy listening/pop. Anyways I believe he's one of the greatest musicians of our generation.
