The Third Eye (Cool Vibes)

Posted about 1 year ago
__While Ayers aimed this feel-good record directly at the dance crowd, in 1976 it was heard coming out of passing cars and on apartment stoops as much as in discotheques. A Top 10 R&B and jazz hit, this one still shines with Ayers' liquid vibes and soulful grooves-- a sound that would be much copied, sampled and emulated decades later.__- "Nick Dedina, Rhapsody":http://www.rhapsody.com/royayers/everybodylovesthesunshineRoy Ayers"The Third Eye (Download mp3)":http://www.box.net/shared/static/ko4x0ks0sg.mp3__secrets of numberssecrets of soundsecrets of wisdom will be found...__

  2. Reckon says My fault, Cody. Didn't qualify the quote - he was referring to the album rather than the track. Neverthelesst, it works out; this your second gut-laugh inducing comment lately. Much appreciated.

  4. Hermes says If I'm not completely wrong Roy Ayers is a regular guest on the "Dancefloor Jazz" series. So one ought to think, that one could dance to this. Maybe not exactlly to this song, but still ... . Easy Listening before the term was coined.
