I went into the United States Army in 1980, I graduated Jun 1980 and on Aug 28th 1980, my date of entry and Fort Dix, New Jersey.
While chillin with my Army buddies, at my first assignment in Fort Knox, KY and my FOREVER DUDES in the 5th Battalion, 33rd Armor, 193rd Armored Brigade.. ❤.. a white dude..NO LIE! from Radcliffe, Kentucky took me into his room to drink some real Kentucky Bourbon (never had before..lol) and PLAYED for the next three hours simply.. TO ME!
The Greatest Album EVER!! and I been a Roy Ayers fan since..
Which is why I had to say something. ❤ TRUE STORY!
I'm 61 year's old and retired now..my favorite cuts Me Nois Se and Master Plan.
Had to say something thanks Roy for something soooooo long lasting. ❤
@ChillStatus Thank U for sharing Ur story and thank U for Ur service 🙏🏼💜🌍🕊️🎹 Roy's music has a special place in my life since almost 2 decades now, but I can hardly imagine how it was like to hear him for the first time back in the early 80s though! 🤩
He knows/ knew great music
You brought back great memories when you mentioned Ft. Dix, NJ! I had my basic training and AIT there in 1979 right out of high school! I've been a fan of Roy Ayers ever since I can remember! Thanks for your service from a fellow vet and fellow jazz lover!
@@tommybluebones8265 Other favorite Roy Ayers cuts...Better Days, Simple and Sweet, This Side of Sunshine, A Tear to a Smile, and my #1 favorite "my life, MY LIFE, my life!..in the sunshine.
Bless up! I hail from Chicago and the DJ's played a lot of Roy's jam on the radio back in the '80's. However, I was in Japan in the '90's and I came across this Roy Album that I never heard before that date and it blew my mind and I became a bigger fan of Roy and a new fan of Fela. Check it out: ruclips.net/video/zEGU1p8PUAA/видео.html
I'm 63 I use to jam this in my Room back in the day Marcy Projects Holla😊
I’m 58, I remember the day well back in the 70’s when my Sister bought Roy Ayer’s album. I was hooked from then till now, I can honestly say he is the only Entertainer that I’m a fan of.
Africa: Center of the World's Truth/Truths.
I had just graduated from high school overseas two years before the release of ACOTW ( rel. 1980 ). So when the fam and I got back Stateside that year, I didn't know that this had already been released. Fast forward to 1983: shortly after being inducted into the Navy, I continued my training in A & C school the following year at Fleet Combat Training Center in Virginia Beach. Unlike the other sailors that went on liberty who went north to the strip, instead I headed west to Norfolk. Back in the days before the internet, I knew almost instinctively where to go to get good music. At that time there had been a record and tape shop on Granby St a few blocks away from the former Judge's Chambers on Monticello Ave. I don't recall having seen this album there at the time ( I picked up anything by Roy that I saw in any record store ); I wound up buying what was a follow up, Lots Of Love. Lots Of Love was the culmination of the projects done with Nigerian multi_instrumentalist, Fela Kuti. To this day Lots Of Love remains my favorite Roy Ayers album. It was not until years later that I even became acquainted with the work on ACOTW. It seems like this one was a sleeper - I don't know. Yet still as far as Roy Ayers endeavors, go it's solid! 😎 To this day, my favorite track on the album is River Niger. Third Eye is somethin' 2 cruise to and I'm warming up to the others as well 🎼🎵🎶
Thank U for sharing Ur story and timelesslove for Roy's music 🙏🏼
@Tommy Blue Bones thank you for loving Roy this much 😎🎹🎵
It is like when we understood roy ayers ....WE had Suddenly Grown up! What a great Artist and Soul!
Roy ayers africa album is a masterpiece possibly one of his finest albums.he is one of the greatest and admired jazz funk fusion musicians ever and has influenced so many..bought this lp when first released and it still is truly something special.roy's very own Master Plan.beautiful.
Mo Nise Si E 💞❤💖💝💘💌 . My first time hearing this simply 😍 A FANTASY WHIRLWIND ✨️ .
I'm so glad to hear that! 🌍🕊️💚✨🎶
a favorite of a dear ole friend. she always asks me to play ayers. nice vibes.
Thank U for the comment, Ur friend sure have great taste 💚🌍🎹🕊️
Back in the day! My brother had this albim❤😊
I too am a life long Roy Ayers fan since the 70's. He brought that jazz fusion on those vibes. I have probably all his albums either on vinyl, cassette,and CD. I don't think my 8tracks withstood the test of time. But from college to the military Roy had something for every journey your ear and mind could endure. Another one of favorites was Everbody loves the Sunshine especially on a beautiful weekend morning. I loved to ride and listen to that jam while cruising. All his music so mellow and funky in a smooth way. Still putting it out there.
You write beautifully about some beautiful sounds!
I have grooved to this brother's music for almost 50 yrs ! Thanks for this one.
U are very welcome! It had to be uploaded here

This was around the same time Roy did an incredible album with Fela Kuti & Africa 80 band.
Absolutely, Music of Many Colors is a pure gem ✨💚🇳🇬💎🙌🏾
Roy ayer and fela's Egypt 80
@@tundeezekiel134 Yes! It was the exact transition year between Africa80 & Egypt 80 with the album 'Original suffer head'
BROTHER?
It should be noted that the late William Allen appears on here as he had on many of Roy's solo efforts. He had been Roy's bassist as far back as the days of the Ubiquity ensemble. He was one of the folks that put the musical magic into everything that Roy put out
He's the first on the personal's list 🙏🏼✨💚✨
We played the hell out of this album when it came out.
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot the account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Atticus Koa I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Atticus Koa it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
@Bridger Cedric Happy to help :)
😍
Thanks for sharing this with me. I have most of his music and I was in Los Angeles enjoying his work and the Jazz scene at that time and it was the most wonderful time in musical history with the advent of the Playboy jazz festival at the Hollywood bowl.
Thank U for sharing Ur memories of these glorious years, it sure sounds like the place & time to be 💙🎹✨🎷
Seeing this album title for the first time, and it's clarified something on Soul II Soul's "Jazzie's Groove" where Jazzie says "For everyone who remembers the Africa Centre... Centre of the WORLD!!" Now, 30+ years later, I get the reference! Great album btw.
Thank U for Ur comment, that's a neat reminder of that supercool 80s classic as well! Incidentally their name also reminds me of that glorious festival from 71 🕊️🌍💚
@@tommybluebones8265 Ah, I was vaguely aware of that festival - thanks for putting it back on my radar! And for uploading this great music!
@@elywananda Don't mention it bro! (U can find this one here hopefully)
Super upload , i realy love Roy Ayers . I have a hint about revision of civilization . Dr. Cheikh Anta Diop wrote the book - Africa mother & model of european ( western ) civilization . Original in French , trans. in English & Deutsch . Yes ! One of the best book i have read . Grüsse aus der Schweiz !
Awesome!!! Roy Ayers Masterpiece. I still got the cassette tape when it came out. I also played the hell of it from 1989-91. Thank you for posting this album.
U are so welcome!!! Thanx for Ur words 🙏
@@tommybluebones8265 thank you for posting this album.
Africa for Africans-Shem... HalleluYAHH YHWH thank you.
I find my mind and spirit changing the more Roy Ayers I discover. Thank you for the upload
Welcome to the Ayers'phere!
Just discovered this. What a gem! Thanks.
Don't mention it 🕊️🌍💚
Bless Tommy 🙌❤️👑🇿🇦
The album ! ❤❤❤
amazing albummm
Nice...
Interesting. Reminds me of a George Clinton type production.
this record slaps
Roy Ayers sound was a Rare and different kind of Air.
Ayers = Airs . . . play on words!
@@kokayiufanifu8309 Not only a play on words but used in a metaphysical and metaphorical context. Air is Wind which is your Mind

Thanks Bobby Hemmitt.
Yes!!! Thank you!!!! 1Nation4Life

Somehow this has passed me by until now. Thanks for posting this. Not sure though how it's featuring Fela - when he's not mentioned anywhere in the credits (discogs)?
U are welcome, thanx for the reminder 🙏🏼 It is my mistake. Although the album's dedicated to him (and Bob Marley) only his daughter is present here.
He clearly did put on there that the first song was WRITTEN by Fela. the version on here is different.
Hey alright now!
So good ,...bestial album
I'll Just Keep Trying SLAPS. it was a tribute to Bob Marley who had transitions when the album was in the works.
yeah dude, i was listening today this morning and kind noticed that has something to bob marley on that, but i didn't realize at first, now i see you coment. musical memory is something that fails when im high LOL
So, who did this first? I guess Fela did it first? This is the first time I've ever heard this version.
Yes in deed bro! This is a cover of the original recorded with Fela the previous year 🎷✨💚🕊️🌍

Greater INDIA is the center of high civilization
Toda cultura que basificou tudo o que conhecemos de grandiosidade indiana veio de Áfrika, mais especificamente de Kush. Civilizações como Harapa e Mohenjo Daro são pretas, matriarcais e sedentárias em sua origem, dando criação a sociedades organizadas em cidades, com sistemas de irrigação e agricultura, além de Yoga, Tantra e etc, que são conhecimentos Keméticos, do antigo KMT.
