Kenny turns from ex-leader Jeff Lorber as producer to early

80's electrofunk maestro Kashif and turns in a fine collection of

bouncy funky R&B sax tunes,all with a great rhythm and some great

vocals.Kenny G's solo' here evoke a soulful,late night mood and have a definate hipness that none of his future music would come

close to replicating.The grooving title song,the fine gospel-

inflected vocals on "Hi,How Are you Doing?" and a kinetic

cover of Kashif's own "Help Yourself To My Love" are sure-fire

highlites.A warning:as with all of Kenny's first 3 albums lovers

of his post-'Duotones' album's won't find anything of interest

here for them.These are soulful,funky and often exciting R&B

songs that no,don't hold much jazz interests,but are at least a

promising start to something that shouldn't have gone that way that it did!

G Force is Kenny at his R&B best! with that Great Kashif sound! here is another great cd in that smooth jazz tradition that is good all the way through... I do hope in the near future Kenny will return to this type of production and vary his sax playing.

"I've Been Missin'You' is some of Kenny's strongest playing!

Between Kenny G and David Sanborn, we ended up with a new genre of jazz music, which thankfully has hung on after all of the horrible R & B that has hit the airwaves. Yes, I am more of an early Kenny G enthusiast (Duotones is his best, in my opinion, though I do love his Kashif colloborations), but people like Praful, Kevin Toney, and others owe it to the original sounds Kenny and Sanborn brought to the table. Get over the long hair and Michael Bolton fears, relax the "threat" to your manhood and enjoy decent music. This and Duotones are excellent starts to those who want to hear Kenny G at his rhythmic best.

Probably some of the people who wrote these comments just haven't been listening to it.I think this album sounds cool!Actually,my favorite songs on it are G-Force.

This album is better than his first, and he had some of his first hits on this one ("Tribeca," "G-Force," and "I've Been Missin' You"). "Sunset at Noon" is a very interesting, Native American-sounding song that my mother enjoys. The only song I don't like is "Hi, How Ya Doin'?" because there isn't much saxophone in that one. Also, check out Kenny's album "Duotones" and David Sanborn's "Backstreet."
