SPYRO GYRA TAKES ANOTHER STEP ON THE WIRE ON NEW HEADS UP RELEASE Down the Wire set for worldwide release on April 28, 2009 Life is being on the wire, everything else is just waiting. - Karl Wallenda The patriarch of the famous aerialist family certainly knew what he was talking about after a lifetime of thrilling, edge-of-the-seat performances for his audiences. While the stakes might not be as high for a jazz band improvising in a recording studio or in front of a live audience, Spyro Gyras leader and saxophonist Jay Beckenstein understands the passion that drives a person and makes life on the wire so appealing.
Mytical group, that influenced in music from the early 80', Jay Beckenstain on sax, Tom Schuman on keyboards, etcc.. all great and important musicians from then.
