Sax, piano, guitar recommendations

I realize many of you are into classical, jazz, rock, etc, but I could listen to instrumental sax, guitar, and piano non stop. I have the common Kenny G, Jim Brickman, Chris Botti stuff. Also love the Clapton/BB King CD. Any recommendations of music that might fit either of these genres? Great voices or instruments- but not classical, opera, or traditional jazz. When in a rental I listen to watercolors. Thanks in advance.

Just finished listening to the Hodges and Hines lp Swings our Thing don’t think you’ll find better players. No guitar but great listening.

The Chet Baker is really great. Totally unfamiliar with him. Listening to James Taylor New Moon Shine right now. 17 degrees outside. Good afternoon for some soul warming music. Thank you.

I expected the Kenny G to raise a few eyebrows. I have about 1200 CDs almost all from 80s and 90’s. My wife and I went to one of his concerts- He may have been with Michael Bolton (it was like going to a chick flick) but full disclosure I thoroughly enjoyed myself. 
Thanks to all.

the YT 2007 interview with Bill Bruford is pretty cool.

@ovinewar - 
Found the Bruford interview.  Good stuff.  Thanks.

While on the subject of Bruford, add his, "If Summer Had Its Ghosts" w/Ralph Towner & Eddie Gomez.

For that matter, add Towner's "Solstice" with Jan Garbarek, Eberhard Weber & Jon Christensen.  This is the recording that first turned me on to ECM.
