Stingray5 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Spyro Gyra with Scott Ambush - I could have probably put these guys in the Funk and Groove thread but wanted to highlight another excellent Jazz-Funk-Fusion outfit and one of the funkiest bassists out there (with all due respect to the other excellent bassists that have appeared on SG albums). Also much respect to drummer Joel Rosenblatt.

Faithless Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Man, the second vid is from Kaunas Jazz fest, biggest fest in our country, the event happens in my home-town.. Anyway, I didn't know, that Spyro Gyra played in Lithuania.. Guess that's because I wasn't yet in the scene then.. Scott's solo was ok, but his singing didn't make me much sense..

stonecoldbass Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Yes! Downloaded a coupla tracks from their new album, "down the wire" I think one is called. Tasty, tight, funky. I like! Good topic. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Academy Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Great player, always liked him...although I reckon quite a few people will draw comparisons with VW for his slap style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
