You might remember watching The Weather Channel's Local Forecast segment and hearing "Morning Dance" from Spyro Gyra. The jazz fusion instrumental actually topped the Adult Contemporary Chart for a week in July 1979.

Seemingly, the only time you ever hear them is at the grocery store or your local CVS. This blog remembers the music, the stories and the quirky characters from my days working in Adult Contemporary radio.
