    This song converted me to Jazz at age 12 in 1979 and I've never looked back since. You can listen to every instrument in isolation and enjoy it. Today, all the instruments play the same beat and you get bored after listening to it once. You can never get bored listening to this 20X a day. Just brilliant.

    This is the song that did it for me back in 1982. After hearing it, I became a Spyro Gyra fan, and a jazz fan for life. Since that year, 1982, when I started college, jazz is all I listen to and I enjoy every second of it. My all time jazz songs are On the Stairs by Pat Martino and I'm Late, I'm Late by Stan Getz. I've seen Spyro Gyra live three times and loved it.

    Summer streets in Manhattan with the walkman on, a tall can of Arizona tea when they first came out and we were all like "whaaa? A tall can?"

    When I was 17, my father, brother and a friend of his all took a road trip to Montana for skiing. My dad had his car cleaned out before we left and forgot to put back into the car his cassette collection. The only one he had was this album. I think we listened to it for 600 of 1,000 miles (each way). It made for a very long week. But I hear this song now and it makes my heart warm.
