Gee, I did not mean to start anything. I just like the comment. Too much of the world is rude, so it is nice to know that there are places out there where people treat each other well.

Spyro Gyra is one of the best bands I have ever seen since I started going to concerts in 1974, and I am anxious to hear the new CD. And...I am going to watch the DVD right now. Later....

I love the way the DVD doccuments the fact that for Spyro Gyra, for all the virtuoso playing, ultimately it is the compositions that are first and foremost.

Also, on the two "ballads"....tracks two and four, the band shows that that term, "ballad" does not have to mean wimpy, syrupy or boring.

Those two ballads are full of drama and energy....and showcase that for all the other times that the band loves great flurries of rapid fire notes, they have the other side covered as well:

The joy of "that one note".

Lastly, I love how each band member signals to the others that they are finsishing their improv's and letting the others know that they will be going back to the main theme.
