the lab review

Roy Ayers records can be disappointing after hearing him hyped to all hell in the digging arena, records on the wall and all that, but "We Live in Brooklyn Baby(1)" really lives up to the hype. It's got the unique Roy Ayers sound and stays on the level soul vibe all the way through, instead of breaking down into a disco flow or something else that makes you remove needles with quickness. Yes, this is the one Digable Planets used this for Borough Check, and it sets the sound for that whole Blowout Comb LP. As with Roy Ayers, there are a couple soul cheese tracks, but this his most solid recording of the era. "We Live in Brooklyn" is worth it alone.
