MikeBass 06-28-2007, 09:49 AM I love what I have heard (Spyro, clips on YouTube etc...) but trying to find his new disc "My Friends, My Time, My Music".
ANYONE know where I can get a copy????
Please help!!

Grueber 06-28-2007, 01:27 PM I think I just got mine from amazon. It really is a great solo album with a good variety of music.
lefty007 06-28-2007, 01:49 PM Yep, I got it from Amazon too. Great album.
This is something I just found by chance:

Edit: I just looked at Amazon and there is only one for $37.00!
And Oskar's Website is offline. . . .
What a shame he doesn't have more time to dedicate to his solo career. I met and chatted with Oskar in L.A. once at a multi-band concert where we both were playing, and I can tell that he's a busy guy - - one of the first-call bassist in L.A.

Wish I found your links first. I just payed double that for a cd on Amazon for around $30. Saw Oscar play live for the first time this past weekend. Definitely one of my new favorite bass players. Great tone, great music and great stage presense. He handles his bass like a matador handles a cape and a bull. Like a man handles a woman when dancing the tango. I am not exagerating. For those that haven't had to pleasure to watch one of his shows yet, don't miss your first/next opportunity. The man puts on a powerful show.
DWBass 07-21-2008, 07:18 AM I may have a line on it.....;)I should have updated this. I've had that cd (digital files only) for a while now.
jerry 07-21-2008, 10:43 AM Oskar produced and played on Steve Lukather's live El Grupo album. Oskar's playing and tone always kills!

Never knew he had a video. I actually found a place that had two copies left and just bought one. One left in case anyone else might be searching for it:

NickBass81 07-21-2008, 05:16 PM Oskar is amazing!!!!:bassist:
Spyro Gyra's "Fast Forward" is one of my favorites...but also his solo album...what a musicianship! what a sound! what a taste!
Didn't know he made a video...I'm gonna look for it!
