"When I was a student at Berklee School of Music in Boston I heard some music that left a lasting impression on me forever! That band was Spyro Gyra. The Saxophone sound was inspiring and infectious. I am now a colleague and label mate of Jay Beckenstein the man behind that sweet sound. Julio Fernandez has played on several of my own projects and I share a band with Dave Samuels, (one of the original members) called the Fantasy Band. I guess I can say that. When I first heard Spyro Gyra, I would have never guessed that these guys would have such an impact on my life. Congratulations on your Lifetime Achievement Award! It's well deserved!" - Marion Meadows

"THE DEEP END demonstrates that the band's spirit of exploration is still very much alive. Indeed, it's thriving." - JazzTimes
