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!
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.
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✌️
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.
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.
SunStoned -search George Duke, Bob James, Donald Byrd and Herbie Hancock too, if you dig this. This was Smooth Jazz before it became hip to listen to. The 70s baby!
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!!
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!,
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.
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.
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.
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
Absolutely beautiful...you cannot beat live music played with such soul and feeling...Roy Ayres et al you are wonderful...but the audience was rather reserved to say the least! Classic song that will never grow old...thanks for entertaining us Roy.
Mindblowing music! Audience is completly paralyzed. Seriously, this is so good and cool and soothing. Hurray for the next summer! Hurray for life! Hurray for Roy Ayers!
I guess underrated means he didn't really cross over to a mass market . I love living my life in the sunshine but sometimes you need some rain. Maybe at nite .
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!
I was in college OU when I heard this at party went out and bought the eight track at Soundwarehouse on West Lindsey. And I played that bad boy all the time especially going down that two lane highway going home from school. It’s like a chant cause everybody’s love the sunshine. Here it is 2023 and it takes me back to the first time I heard. Oh I could run like the wind back then and so carefree.. Yes life.. in the sunshine..LB Thursday January 26, 2023…😊
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!
Oh man ! Now this is music. Roy Ayers was one of my first exposures to jazz. You can have that baggy pants,halfway falling off of your Ass RAP CRAP. This kind of music takes talent and skill to perform live.
i did but they brought me back to this art PrAnG2000

I agree!!
Too overwhelming!,taken back by surprise, Confounded? Let me hear it again???
I’m a 90”s baby.....I’m soaking all of this up.....pen and paper in hand, this is gold.
This tune is something that only a musical genius could make .What an underrated legend .
+Pete Rock Preemo Who the f**k is underated, Roy?? Are you bonkers??
Dude just said Roy Ayers is underrated. LOL.
YES YES YES!!!
None of you noobs are wrong.
It just depends what part of the world you know.
Jay Dee, h☀️pefully that changes from underrated to a bright as the sunshine OVER☀️RATED in the era 😷f covid-19 🙏
Roy Ayers carried an entire generation with his vibes, this song always sent chills through me.
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.

Ray Gaskins (RIP) was a great addition to the band though,
This is the sweetest version I've heard of this cut yet. The guitar player and drummer are nice.
In my Top 10 ! Gives all kinds of feels ❤️.
Beatmaker??? )))
I’m 20 years old and I’m sharing this to the new generation... just marvelous
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!

Still love me some Miles Davis. His autobiography is still certified lockdown material to read.
YUP, DC LOVES ROY AYERS
Roy is theraputic, smooth, relaxing
Why me come on boy here is the best bring me back

CrystalFissure alright man, see you on lots of soichi tunes :)
Soichi is one of my favourites!
Correction - Soichi Terada is my favourite. Seeing him live this coming Thursday in Adelaide.
CrystalFissure
wow very jealous! missed him recently in berlin, was very bummed out..
It's called fusion funk soul dance and other catagorie
that guitar solo just took me to outer space!
Zachary Breaux....absolute genius, and taken from us far to soon :(

Damn,I would like to live in that time...Pure music...real artists...no internet...😎
This is one of the MOST AWESOME displays of musical genius I have ever seen or heard in my 61 yrs COLD BLOODED!!!
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.

SunStoned -search George Duke, Bob James, Donald Byrd and Herbie Hancock too, if you dig this. This was Smooth Jazz before it became hip to listen to. The 70s baby!
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.
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!!
I'm 4 years old and I love this song
Sure.
iiROGUEiiKAKASHIii joking
+Carter Henderson Loool

Carter
Damn good attention span for a “4 yr. old”.
je l'écoute des dizaines de fois de suite et je m en lasse pas... Hypnotic !!!
La perfection ce live
I was so lucky to see this line up on a couple of occasions. Zachery Breaux and Donald Davis...legends!!!
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!!
Blue Note... reminds me of blue note records. Sounds like an amazing concert. Check out the Madlib Shades of Blue album. Love from NY
@@OddiseeXL I will do that. Thanks for the heads up!
the bassman is fantastic, too - love his smooth style!
When the good Lord takes me home, please etch "Everybody Loves The Sunshine" on my tombstone ... "just bees and things and flowaaaas"!
I've seen this video like 10 times, and I share it with musicians and they are blown by it!
What a band!! 🎵😎
This Ayers classic is what summer sounds like.
How have I never heard of this guy til now? Definitely need more of this.
Better late than never... This guy is pure GENIOUS
Where have you been? You have to tune in this man and his musical proneness is genius and no groups today can come close!
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!,
Everybody loves the sunshine ,,an amaizing inspiring jazz composition ,,truly great..from Roy Ayers

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.
Love this concert on DVD. Listen to the drummer work the foot pedal. BASS is on point. The late great Mr Breaux. And should be Hall Of Fame Roy Ayers.
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.
Each And Every Day We Bless God For This Because We All Love The Sunshine
