Originally released in the UK only on Uno Melodic Records, 'Silver Vibrations' contains four unique cuts all of its own, plus extended takes of three songs, including the definitive version of iconic song & higly sought after 'Chicago'. The rarity of the original pressing has led to eye-watering second-hand prices on re-selling sites. ‘Silver Vibrations’ was perhaps the last album to retain the sound of Ayers’ organic signature of the latter ’70s. The mysterious vibe and cosmic ruminations of “Chicago”, the unedited version of which is exclusive to this L.P., or the funky up- tempo “Good, Good Music” confirm this album is an essential. Title track “Silver Vibrations” was only ever released in the U.K.. Both “Lots Of Love” and “Keep On Movin’” hark back to previous times and are a pleasant listen without being at all taxing. The wistful “D.C. City”, a close companion of Ubiquity’s original recording of “The Third Eye” is, in many ways, quintessentially Roy Ayers.
