Sweet.
Dont write these guys off as just another smooth jazz outfit.
They are WAY beyond that moniker.
Their latest CD, titled after a rather badass bass solo number that Scott Ambush has been performing the past few years, is one of my faves ever (after only 1-2 listens!) from them. Of course, there are a couple of smoother tunes that Spyro has been doing since the beginning.
As for the remainder of the disc...Jazz, funk, and oh so tasty arrangements/musicianship abound.

Do yourselves a favor and give it a spin.

:cool:

Hey Stevo,
Live these guys are anything but smooth jazz. Have seen them several times since '80 and they always burned. Enjoy!

Hey Steve,
Glad to hear you're on the bandwagon.
I saw them in the late 80's, when Ritchie Morales and
Oscar Cartaya were with them.

What a show!
