Now that I have your attention let me ask a quick question. Does anyone know anyother groups that are out that are similiar to the following:

Fourplay
Spyro Gyra
The Rippingtons

I have all the above's CD's and I am looking for some more in that particular genre. If you experts could please give me a few artists to look at I wuld truly appreciate it. They can even be foreign groups for all I care. I just found a new love for this stuff and need some variety. Thanks.

Man is it going to take some time to check all these out. Oh well, I guess that is why we are into all this. LOL I do appreciate all the help. Some of you went above and beyond to type all that.

Mezzoforte on Amazon has about 20 albums. It looks like one of them is a new release on a live album.
