Christ, you chaps sure like writting lists!
I rekon smooth jazz is just an evolution of fusion. I mean, Kenny G's stuff isn't a million miles away from Tom Scott or some of Billy Cobham's stuff or Dave Sanborn or the Brecker Brothers. It's only because he's well known is why he get's loads of stick. And the style is out of fashion.
Those who like modern Be-Bop. You might like some stuff by a drummer called Carl Allen, pianist Benny Green and a tenor player called Lew Tabackin (not together). Also you can now get Charile Ventura's 1940's-1950's recordings on a box set. Hmm, how interesting.
