RAMP: Come Into Knowledge (Roy Ayers) Vinyl LP
Official Blue Thumb reissue of this heavily sweated Roy Ayers' joint.Ā Come Into KnowledgeĀ is a digger's staple and one of the rarestĀ Roy Ayers'Ā albums, fetching a c-note plus for original pressings. But before you go droppin your hard earned equity, drop a fraction of thatĀ on this reissue and see what it's all about. Some might be expecting a banging funk record, butĀ RAMPĀ is more smoothed out jazz-funk, the specific soul sound of 1977. The songs feature the vocals ofĀ Sharon MatthewsĀ andĀ Sibel ThrasherĀ with arrangements byĀ Ayers. The track of note here is "Daylight" the summer groover wholly sampled byĀ ATCQĀ for "Bonita Applebum." The cover of the classic "Everybody Loves the Sunshine" feels just right with the female vocals and Lab heads agree that it outshines the original. And you can't front on that album art! Comes in heavy, full gloss cover.
