R.A.M.P. / Come into Knowledge / listen
Hard to find Roy Ayers jazz funk og. lp


Info: RAMP stood for the Roy Ayers Music Project. Ayers along with fellow band members Edwin Birdsong and
William Allen, wrote, produced and arranged the Cincinnati based group consisting of John Manuel on drums,
Nate White on bass, Landy Shores on guitar and the singing duo of Sharon Matthews and Sibel Thrasher.
Come Into Knowledge was made known to most after Tribe Called Quest sampled Daylight for Bonita Applebum,
but there’s so much more to the record. The band gets right down to things with American Promise with Shores
laying down a thick rhythm track with his guitar and Matthews and Thrasher showing off their vocal abilities. I Just Love
You has that distinctive Roy Ayers sound to it with its smooth and slow groove. That’s what most of the record sounds
like with a great cover of Everybody Loves The Sunshine played just as well as the original, the falsetto singing on the
title track, the more upbeat Try, Try, Try, and of course the sampled Daylight.
The record is a musthave for all beatheads. Check the soundfiles!
