Much love & respect to Roy Ayers, who has passed away. His catalogue extends beyond Everybody Loves the Sunshine, although that was a landmark recording. Ayers is one of those musicians whose stature continued to grow as he aged. Everybody Loves the Sunshine has been sampled over 100 times. We Live in Brooklyn, Baby was also massive.

One of the great things about Sly and the Family Stone is they created an undeniable soundtrack for diversity & inclusion. Their black & white & male & female 'I am everyday people' thing scared the hell out of conservatives. Still does.

Stevie Wonder released his classic album, Innervisions, on this day (August 3) 1973. One of the singles, He's Misstra Know-It-All, is about a con-man politician. Sounds familiar, and funky AF.

@BEK97 @vinylrecords This #GrantGreen record is incredible. First time i really tuned in to #IdrisMuhammad on drums. Feel like a whole world just opened up.

Didn't know this #Rufus hit was written by #StevieWonder. Makes sense! #SoulSaturday

That time when Aretha and Smokey did an impromptu duet of βOoh Baby Babyβ on Soul Train.

#SoulSaturday Hereβs one of my favourite Temptations songs - To Be Continued. I especially love the huge chords the rest of the Temps do in answer to the lead vocal.

Ep 3 of the #1619Project covers the birth of American music and it's a mindblower. The intro talks about the Black roots of yacht rock. If possible the episode deepened my appreciation of #SteelyDan who featured several legendary Black musicians. Bassist #ChuckRainey plays on classic SD tracks, from Home at Last to Kid Charlemagne & Bad Sneakers--described by #DonaldFagen as a #NewYork song. Love Rainey's playing.

As Jack Pepper notes on The Vinyl Factory site, Donald Byrd's trio of 70s records, Black Byrd, Stepping Into Tomorrow & Places and Spaces, propelled jazz toward a younger, soul-oriented audience. The classic track 'Think Twice' (on Stepping Into Tomorrow) has been sampled repeatedly. Most notably by A Tribe Called Quest (Footprints, People's Instinctive Travels), #JDilla (Welcome 2 Detroit), & #ErykahBadu (Worldwide Underground). #DonaldByrd was a 70s visionary.

@Shells Wow--this is like a TV signal from a better universe next door. And what about McCoy Tyner? Parents are like, "Look away from the TV, kids. McCoy Tyner is shooting out the lights!"
