Kenny,

I always loved your music. And I know you loved mine.

And I know you loved my hair. And I've always loved your hair.

And I know you love your mom. I've always loved mine.

I wish I were alive so we could be two famous people with lovely hair jamming together.

Love,

Tiny Tim

PS: Love

PPS: Or, I wish you were dead like me, so we could be two famous people in up here in heaven (with lovely hair) jamming together.

PPSS: Love

Kenny G came over to the place I lived once when we were having a jam session.  He sounded a lot like Coltrane and he certainly had all his be-bop skills down.  The one thing I respect about Kenny G is that he is doing the kind of music that we  hear in elevators as a choice, not because it's the only thing he can do.

The reason he came over to the jam session (this was back in... 89, 90?) is that my brother played with him at a concert at the University of Washington where he had gone to school. Kenny G was good friends with the late Roy Cummings, the director of jazz at the UW for many years.  After the concert, everyone got together and jammed. It was actually a lot of fun.
