Description
Roy Ayers Ubiquity – He's Coming (Verve Vault Series) [180G LP]
Description
Released on Polydor in 1972, He’s Coming captures vibraphonist Roy Ayers at a creative apex, as Ubiquity’s sound settled into the blend of jazz improvisation, funk rhythm, soul harmony, and spiritual import that would define his work throughout the decade. The album reflects Ayers’s deepening move toward a groove-centered musical language rooted in soul-jazz and early jazz-funk. Ayers is supported by a core ensemble that includes Harry Whitaker on electric piano, organ, and vocals; John Williams on bass, with Ron Carter featured on “We Live in Brooklyn, Baby”; David Lee Jr. and Billy Cobham on drums and percussion; guitarists Sam Brown and Bob Fusco; saxophonist Sonny Fortune; and percussionist Juma Santos. Tracks like “He’s a Superstar,” “Sweet Butterfly of Love,” and “Fire Weaver,” embody the record’s mix of urban narrative, spiritual reflection, and deep rhythmic.
The Verve Vault series is always mastered from analog tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
