Spyro Gyra

Anyone out there have this smooth jazz album. Self-Titled, Just found in the crates the other day. Got some nice jazz lines. Good for Hip-Hop.

used to have it in the 80s.completely forgotten about them. nice one.

Yeah man, the have a couple of good songs that can be sampled with. "Shaker Song" has some riffs that could potent. be great Hip-Hop hooks.

yeah i got that album, its got some good material. they got another album that was pretty good "Incognito." My neighboor played bass on it, Marcus Miller. I'm not sure if he's on the self-titled, but i'm sure it would say it on the back.

kind of a poor mans weather report...

i bought a few of thier other albums and didint like them as much as the self titled...

they did loads though - check the site
