They've survived by building their fan base and offering one of contemporary instrumental music's best live shows year after year.

The band did find some smooth jazz success by finding the right combination with guitarist Chieli Minucci on the seductive 'Ariana,' but it's easy to see from most of these tracks that its true creative heart lay elsewhere. 'Three Wishes' is Beckenstein's very likeable attempt at a traditional jazz approach. That way, says Evans, when people came lot their free single or discount on.

You won't catch the scorching Latin jams 'Breakfast at Igor's' or 'Para Ti Latino' on any smooth station, and even lighthearted tracks like keyboardist Tom Schuman's 'You Can Count on Me' are a little too island-minded to hit the R&B-focused genre listener these days. One such dealer is Willie F.wtnsot Evans House of Music in San Tran- cisco. Manager Philip Brennan sequenced these tracks with GRP A&R guy Bud Harner, wisely choosing to make a live version of 'Morning Dance' the last track, something of an afterthought, since most of the material here (from 1988 through 1997) is far more challenging and exciting. Buy the album Starting at 14,49€Īlthough Spyro Gyra's late-'70s instrumental pop chart hit 'Morning Dance' is always credited by some for opening doors for the genre that folks would later call smooth jazz, this 16-track compilation - part of GRP's new classic artist collector's series - shows that saxman Jay Beckenstein and company never really fit perfectly into any category.
