Phil listed "Birkes Works"-what record is that off of? Is it a brother track of one of my favorite tracks "Birkes Law" from DBC?!LOL! Was excited at first to see Jim Mecke, Phil, and a few others had posted! THEN I saw that those posts were 3 years old! A PARTIAL list-by the way-few if any of these lists contained SHAKER SONG and/or MORNING DANCE-too funny. 1-Big Dance Number-LIVE NSJ dvd-Julio end solo-but Schuuu-WHEW-on that two minute straight ahead turn! 2-The Deep End-live NSJ dvd@ whew again.! Scott`s solo of course-but that call and response between Jay, Julio, Scott near the coda. WOW! 3-INCOGNITO-studio- AND the NSJ dvd-Julio solo-and Jay on TENOR-INCREDIBLE. 4-Para Ti Latino-NSJ-DITTO! 5-SHAKER SONG-Road Scholars.UNIQUE! NO JAY B. And the piano trio take is incendiary! 6-De La Luz-studio AND ROAD SCHOLARS- that musical flurry following the "Sing it out-Whoaaa" section. 7-BREAKFAST AT IGORS-studio-but especially RS take-Jay Julio, and Schuu at the close-all amazing.

I think Shaker Song and Morning Dance aren't on the lists because they're always around. Performed at every SG concert. Played on radio. Covered by other artists.

Pt 2 of my list of SPYRO songs I LOVE+have OBSESSED about:1-Pacific Sunrise/Freetime/Summer Strut-in 1982, Freetime was THE record that built the jazz bridge that I could cross over from rock. I listened to PacSun+Freetime hundreds of times that year. 2-Last Exit/Old San Juan/Oasis/Incognito-Later in 1982,this sealed it! I was hooked from the opening Schu synth riff of Last Exit. Guitar solo-ditto played that solo over and over hundreds o times-as I did Jays solo and Schuu`synth out solo. OSJ and Incognito-same treatment-but make that several hundred times for those two. They are in my Spyro TOP TEN to this day! 3-City Kids/Conversations/Silver Linings Funny thing-for a guitar head like me-Tom Schuman`s synth riffs, solos were so genius that Tom`s work-even more than Jay+Dave`s was THE thing that made me a SPYRO FREAK. 4-OSJ/Conversations/Schu`s Blues/Heliopolis/Shaker Song/Harbor Nights fro AAA. 100`s of spins 4 each track-Conversations+OSJ especiallly.
