Yes you correct. I do NOT for one SECOND take it for granted. So many of contemporary jazz's great bands have not toured and/or recorded for years. Pat Metheny Group(my second favorite band in jazz)has done nothing for 5 years album or tour!
So NEXT Saturday, even though it will be my 45th Spyro Gyra concert since November 8, 1985--I am still excited and nervously on edge. They are a different band in several subtle ways every concert. So, I am high with anticipation for next Saturday's HYATT NEWPORTER GIG!
