You Send Me
Roy Ayers
Ayers reimagines a Sam Cooke standard, anchoring the album in danceable R&B. Polydor production provides a sheen defined by lush synth layers and tight, precise rhythm sections typical of the late seventies.
These tracks demonstrate the shift where jazz-fusion began merging with the dance floor. It captures a specific moment in music history where the groove became the central focus of the production.
