The name of the artist is clearly said in and on this video...... but I do agree with the rest of what you just said.

@@TD010, he was referring to KZbin in his comment, not the artist.

[@Beauty-and-the-Dia-betes]

KZbin was created by Steve Chen, Chad Hurley, and Jawed Karim. They were working for PayPal at the time. They sold it to Google in 2006. It was originally created as a dating site.

[@Tomatohater64]

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.

i still remember that was the same yr i became to like Spyro Gyra, Chuck Mangione, Earl Klugh.and now i feel 20 again...feel songood

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.

Whenever I did go see them back in the day, family and friends he gathered with, so I did not interrupt. But he seemed like a nice guy.
