Description
Released in 1969 on Atlantic, this was the last of Ayers' three albums for the label, recorded just before he formed his landmark band Ubiquity and pivoted toward jazz-funk. Produced by Herbie Mann and featuring an extraordinary cast including Herbie Hancock on piano and Ron Carter on bass, the record moves gracefully between soul-jazz and bossa nova, with Ayers' vibraphone carrying everything from lush Jobim covers to a jittery, samba-infused title track. An essential and somewhat underrated chapter from the early career of a true legend.
