World-renowned jazz musician Kenny G introduces Latin classic romance to the smooth sultry sounds of his saxophone, on the new Rhythm & Romance. Kenny G is a musical genius whose music bridges the gap between races, genders, and nationalities. His music has an alluring quality, combined with a seductiveness about it that has the power to compel unbridled passion. Rhythm & Romance has a total of 12 tracks. My favorite is track 8, "Besame Mucho," which translates to "Kiss Me A Lot." It's mellow and enticing. It lingers in the senses and causes the recesses of the mind to crave romantically inclined situations. I also have to acknowledge the other band members Walter Afanasiefe (piano), Ramon Stagnero and Pablo Hurtado (guitar), John Pena and Nathan East (bass), Alex Acuna (drums), Enrique Martinez (accordion), Michito Sanchez, Rafeal Padilla, Paulinho Da Costa, and Ron Powell (percussion), Gary Grant and Dan Fornero (trumpet), Bill Reichenbach and Andy Martin (trombone), and Dan Higgins (saxes). Individually they all sound great but together they are phenomenal. They compliment each other well... kind of like Spanish guitars and amorous ballads. Track Listing: 1 Sax-O-Loco 2.

The title of the CD is Rhythm & Romance and the music that plays is exactly that. From the first catchy notes of Sax-o-loco to the last notes of Salsa Kenny, the music does not let you go until it's over. But by then, you can't wait to start over again. All the selections are outstanding but there are personal favorites. The stand out selections for me are Cope de Amor, Sabor A Mi, Besame Mucho, Brasilia, Sax-o-loco and of course, Ritmo y Romance. I could listen to these selections over and over again. For those interested in listening to similar genre of music from Kenny G, I would recommend buying/listening to Classics in the Key of G. it's an outstanding CD that has a collection of jazz classics that influenced him during his younger days as a learning musician. He is a great musician who has managed to stay in the realm of quality jazz music all through the years. I'm always looking forward to more beautiful music from him.Read full review
