专辑简介
Thirtysomethings who grew up in the '70s and '80s grooved to vibraphonist Roy Ayers's funky hits "Freaky Deaky" and "Running Away," and modern hip-hop groups like The Roots sampled Ayers's riffs and exposed him to an even younger crowd. This 1968 reissue features Herbie Hancock, flutist Hubert Laws, alto saxophonist Gary Bartz, drummer Grady Tate, bassists Ron Carter, and Miroslav Vitous and Charles Tolliver on trumpet and flügelhorn, highlighting Ayers's forgotten roots as a jazz fusion artist. Throughout the record, the Los Angeles-born vibraphonist assimilates the styles of Lionel Hampton, Milt Jackson, and Bobby Hutcherson into an accessible, genre-crossing style. Ayers's "A Rose for Cindy" opens with a spooky, atonal collage and resolves into pensive midtempo tune. Antonio Carlos Jobim's bossa nova-breezed "Wave" and the Stevie Wonder hit "For Once in My Life" shimmer with Tolliver's horn arrangements. The trumpeter's Latin-tinged "Lil's Paradise," the intriguing "What the People Say," and the title track still groove and sound contemporary.
