[@priest810]

Yooooo....this crowd was sooo unappreciative to the straight up mastery and skill and pure essence of life this man brings with his crew. They just..SAT there!!!! I would have lost my EVER LASTING MINNNNDDDD in this performance!

[@yvettegibson8889]

Yes they have no idea what Roy and his music was about.

[@solomonbrown2692]

[@loupellizzari]

I don't even know why they were there? I'd be in a trance

Too overwhelming!,taken back by surprise, Confounded? Let me hear it again???

[@geoffaustin9385]

How could you not be moved by this...simply divine

[@GMONY5]

Roy Ayers carried an entire generation with his vibes, this song always sent chills through me.

[@sphiwemashaba2661]

Roy Ayers must have been at his prime here! And this has to be without doubt, his best band to date! What a fine version of Everybody Loves The Sunshine. Pitty that the audience was not ready for the kind of greatness that stood before them on that day.

[@marquiselektrek8452]

Sphiwe Mashaba, I am a musician, and I agree with everything that you said! I've not heard all of the bands and ensembles that Mr. Ayers has played with, but it's hard for me to imagine any of them sounding as good as this one here, b/c the arrangement, musicianship, and virtuosity on display her is off the chart! The band and Roy Ayres are maddeningly tight! 😁 In fact this is one of my favorite live performances of all time! All genres of music considered! Lastly, it's so sad that there are very few of today's band's showcasing this level of skill and musicianship. Maybe today's kids can watch this video to see how it's done! Peace✌️

[@dylanmace2851]

Ray Gaskins (RIP) was a great addition to the band though,

[@andresramirezmolina]

i admire them for not letting the crowd damper their spirits and still play some great music.

[@MrTbay1]

This is the sweetest version I've heard of this cut yet. The guitar player and drummer are nice.

[@MadouFrusciante]

In my Top 10 ! Gives all kinds of feels ❤️.

[@montti_ossa]

Beatmaker??? )))

[@MarkyNuz]

Can't tell if they're so entranced by the music, or just not appreciating it fully. People would kill to see this these days.

[@kem1kal]

man i wasn't even THERE and the intensity, beauty and structure of this brings a tear to my eye, where were the music lovers?

I'm 50 amd cry at the genius is that of Roy! It reminds me of school days and the uncertainties of life. Whats it all about!

Roy is theraputic, smooth, relaxing

X stop playing stop it stop playing

[@cessaly100]

Yep! Heard it in New York City summer of 1978, bought the album right away. Still fabulous!

[@CrystalFissure]

I feel like this is definitively one of the greatest music tracks of all time. Those chords are beautiful. No wonder so many Deep House, Nu-Jazz, Hip Hop and Techno artists sample and are inspired by Roy Ayers and by extension, Miles Davis and other Jazz innovators. Truly incredible.

[@flowerpower111]

CrystalFissure alright man, see you on lots of soichi tunes :)

[@CrystalFissure]

Soichi is one of my favourites!

[@CrystalFissure]

Correction - Soichi Terada is my favourite. Seeing him live this coming Thursday in Adelaide.

[@flowerpower111]

CrystalFissure wow very jealous! missed him recently in berlin, was very bummed out..

[@oholm09]

It's called fusion funk soul dance and other catagorie

[@1blessedbrotha]

so good to see Roy giving props to Miles Davis, because he so deeply deserves every bit! We live for Roy Ayres here in D.C. because he never forgets us when he's on tour! Thank you so much for this smoove, mellow version of my all-time favorite jazz anthem. I'm so feelin this ace interpretation.

[@Cracaphat]

Still love me some Miles Davis. His autobiography is still certified lockdown material to read.

You guys are right, that audience had no soul. Excellent performance. The bass player didn't miss a note. The guitar solo was nice too. I stumble on this by mistake, glad I made that mistake. I saw Roy Ayers at the World Financial Center. He is the best!,

Was first introduced to Roy Ayer's music back in the 70's while living with my brother in Chicago, instantly fell in love with it!!

How good can any artist get. He satisfies my jazz craving because he so versatile and has so much energy. I love his style and originality.

[@BigOGinge]

I was so lucky to see this line up on a couple of occasions. Zachery Breaux and Donald Davis...legends!!!

[@MrDoobie28]

I love this song and the guitar solo at the end is one of the best I have ever heard. The band is really tight yet there is space in the music. Brings me JOY.

I saw him at the Blue Note in NY a couple of years ago and we the crowd responded like you're supposed to when hearing the masterful Roy Ayers!! He was awesome as always and we definitely made some noise esp when we sang with him on this awesome piece! Don't know where this crowd came from!!

Never seen Roy Ayers live. All I can say is this song is, always has been and always will be the shit. He needs to release a live version of this. I would go out and buy it in a heartbeat.

[@richardparrington8636]

A funking masterpiece. I'm privileged to have seen this line up at Ronnie Scotts Birmingham. Fell in love with Zachery Breaux playing and super funky drummer. God these guys are good. Roy is just so entertaining.

[@gregoryburton1241]

Been listening to Roy since the 70's. He, Grover Washington Jr, Ronnie Laws, Bob James, Dexter Wansel, Donald Byrd, The Crusaders and Lonnie Liston Smith took charge of the jazz-fusion movement and hit it out the park. One of my all time favorite artist. This audience must have been left over from an infomercial spot!

[@kalamajadrifter]

what a composition!!! and drum works!!! double bass drum fills in 'everybody loves sunshine'!!! MINDBLOWING! tell the drummer if you know him. tnx

Been listening to Roy Ayers since the 70s. Love, love, love him. :)

[@MrDoobie28]

from the man who gave us 'Poo Poo La La' !! I love this song, full of soul and feeling. One of the best guitar solos I have ever heard--comes in at 4.10. The band is tight but there is space in the music shame about the audience. brings me great joy. xx

Certainly 'IS NOT' underrated by any stretch of the imagination. My man, Roy, has influenced so many musicians across so many genres in music right across the world. Man's done seriously everlasting works that many of todays highly celebrated artists couldn't achieve in several lifetimes. WORD!
