Well, truth be told, Spyro Gyra has always sort of been a record deal with me as far as the record companies are concerned. And they have never wanted me to have a solo record because they thought it would compete with something that was doing very, very well for them, Spyro Gyra. In the past they would give me band mates records to do. I did a couple of Dave Samuels records and a Tom Schuman record, but not until recently did I get them to go for a solo project for me. Most of the musicians stick with the band unless they break up.
Most bands break up.
Any example where you use me is kinda strange because Spyro Gyra has lasted 25 years. That's an anomaly. Not too many people last ten let alone 20. I'm just dedicated to that band as ever. My next project and everything I'm going to put my heart into is the next Spyro Gyra record.
