  1. 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.

  2. @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.

  3. 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.
