[seankeatonthehnic]

this album is a classic. I'm not an oldhead or nothing but this is good music!!

[50Robotized]

The beauty of Sunshine heals blind people...

[verdemanthe1]

@50Robotized it also makes people who can see blind?

[50Robotized]

@verdemanthe1 Hell no

[verdemanthe1]

@50Robotized cause if you stare into the sun long enough you'll go blind

[JayDub09]

[schwiggys]

3 people got burnt in the sunshine

[juandmedallonea]

I think that the Cam Quartet's version is better

[6664818GGG]

Re: ShabazzAlaha1 As the guy later called Jesus said, quoting the Buddhist Lotus Sutra, "the rain falls upon the just and the unjust alike." Roy Ayers encourages us all to live in the Sunshine. He accepts everyone. The Buddha accepts everyone. If your god excludes gays and stoners your god is small and untrue. Find a bigger god....find the Buddha...embrace the acceptance that tells us all to do what we do in the sunshine. Greg Gibbs

[ShabazzAllah1]

Purely divine music. This is music they should be playing on the radio not Lil Wayne and c murder crap.

[vinyl2k8]

I murdered like button

[noshinematt]

[ejr1978]

premier...premier...pre-pre-pr­e-pre...j/k, great song btw

[baybuh]

3 people who disliked this can rot in hell.

[stoinge]

RAMP=Roy Ayres Music Production

[pyenapple]

Both versions of this song are surely genius, but I think I like the really relaxed pace of this one even better than the original Ayers version, it really forces the listener to slow down and feel. Pure music.

[sadziom]

This version seems better for sampling doesn't it?

[Livegutta]

@sadziom You Know What it kinda does....... i just looked it up NO ONE sampled this ramp version

[alcohalls]

Fantastic....

[loekoemang83]

Doe je ogen dicht en luister naar deze track en vertel me wat er in je opkomt.

[JayWillyBrandname]

RAMP is indeed an Acronym for Roy Ayers Music Project this group is His Brainchild. Classic This song is plain and Simple a CLASSIC. This Music reminds us that We don't Take In Enough Sunshine if We did We wouldn't Be drinking so much MOONshine,

[6664818GGG]

To me Roy Ayers' song is saying that we should all be accepted as we are: white, black, straight, gay, stoner, sober:All are worthy of life and respect. Viz. I'm gonna do what I do, when I do what I do - in the sunshine. Love this song in all its renditions. Greg Gibbs of Portland

[ShabazzAllah1]

@6664818GGG Not gay and not stoner, those are unworthy of this divine inspired music. peace.

[internetkiddie]

[FonoMatrix]

@happycake3 roy ayers music project would be a better guess imho, dunno what it really stands for tho

[happycake3]

@FonoMatrix I just Wickied it and its says its neither! It actually means what it says... Ramp as in something that elevates you! : )

[rickjamesbytch]

[Techmical]

i love this version so much. It might not be the original but it certainly sounds like an original, unlike some modern cheap covers of classics. Thanks for the upload !

[gleesocks]

the whole album is sick as fuck

[iamDamitaJo]

i know right....so ahead of it's time too.

[btinsley1]

why are you guys comparing the 2 versions? daaag ! don't you all know ROY AYERS is behind BOTH versions?

those of us under the sun don't really care who did the best version...it's just all about bees & thing & flowers...

[icedem34]

wow i didnt know thnx 4 da tip

[TRUTHdaAntagonist]

@projectcee ... RAMP does NOT stand for Roy Ayers Music Production. Ayers worked with them, but RAMP was not an acronym. it literally meant like a "ramp."

[pleasendlost]

this shit is musical marijuana...takes you there...

[whoscrazo69]

i couldnt agree more

[unknown77051]

Roy Ayers was a little bit better.

[drtune]

One of the most chronic "fades out too soon" tracks ever. That moog solo at the end... oh man...

[McExtravagent]

:) :) :) :)

[Nostaljack]

Daggone, this is good; not as good as Roy Ayers' version but really good. I've been listening to samples of the whole album and it's got such a cool vibe.

(excuse me if this is a dumb question,,,,,im only 14 and these song were made almost 30 years before i was born)

[BOWIEDANCEQUEEN]

Ok, ur dumb and don't answer any more questions....RAMP stands for Roy Ayers Music Project....so its the same person, please learn ur music.

[BOWIEDANCEQUEEN]

Are you done cursing on such a positive and peaceful song?...Feel better?

[kosofunk06]

it doesnt stand for roy ayres music project its a common misconception so dont go around calling people dumb if you cant check your own facts before posting them

[BOWIEDANCEQUEEN]

Sweets, please don't listen to these dummies. RAMP stands for Roy Ayers Music Project...its the same person, different versions. Im proud of you being so young and interested in real and good music...keep researching!

[resident816]

RAMP has mistakenly been said to stand for "Roy Ayers Music Production" and "Roy Ayers Music Project", but Ayers was not a member, though he did write and produce songs on their debut album. Bandleader and drummer John Manuel states: "The name actually refers to taking you on a journey".

[MrFigglez]

I know for damn sure they take me on journey's everytime I listen to them harmonize. Gotta love RAMP.

[resident816]

indeed

[kosofunk06]

you patronizing twat your ego must be bigger than bonos

[MJJACKSON1987]

someone has used this as a sample i don't know who but i'm sure of it

[Thinker302]

I'm not sure of any others, but Mary J. Blige used this sample for her song, "My Life"

[BlackJack213]

Tupac on the gang related soundtrack

[justinjbutler]

MJB sampled the original.

[xMrPRESIDENTx]

Brand Nubian sampled this for the song "wake up" before anyone else sampled it...

[greyblooz]

Hey, thanks. This is maybe my favorite song, and I've never heard this version.

[racket113]

@greyblooz listen the Incognito's version....or mary j blidge too

[9toStryfe]

which hip hop song has sampled this song ?coz its seriously bugging me not being able to remember it

[archdukezeb]

Track by mixmaster something or other. I think Premo produced it. Samples the opening. There's also a Tony Yayo joint that samples this/

[BlackJack213]

Mary J and Tupac

[kcutz]

[gamerrr50]

I'm happy that GTA4 put RAMP on the game

[themc22304]

damn dude i knew RAMP had something to do with roy ayers cuz the sound of Daylight. of course i havent heard of RAMP until GTA4

[Cineczek1500100900]

Good...but Roy Ayers's version is the best:)

[trademark1874]

This is also his version, we have to say it again. RAMP stands for Roy Ayers Music Project. But ill rewfwr the RAMP version, so smooth

[zwandaba]

sorry, but your wrong. RAMP doesn't stand for "Roy Ayers Music Project". The bandleader and drummer John Manuel said: "The name actually refers to taking you on a journey, elevation, as in an on or up ramp, an access to another place as in highway ramps.

[cianamja]

b b que music here

[brooklyn6458]

i love this song just smooth as ice

[chumashfalcon]

Just bees and thangs

[24v7v420]

And flowers.

[Mescrotus]

This my favorite version of this song; better than the original imo.

[LaMujerIv]

***Everybody loves the sunshine.. Los Angeles loves the sunshine_ RAMP will be preforming live @ the Crash Mansion in LA Saturday March 15th_ 2008_ 9pm_ present by ArtDontSleep!!

[bugsweed]

love the scene in GRILLED where Kevin James and Ray Romano argue at a highway on a hot sunny day while this song plays....

[yersi]

so smooth

[naturalmystic67]

Soul to Soul at the Africa Centre, Sunday nights, circa 1986/7...the finishing tune to end all finishing tunes! Lots of cuts to this tune, this remains the best. TUNE!

[hgiles1586]

The BEST DAYS.....

[destituteillusion]

you can find out more about RAMP by listening to an interview with Landy Shores, the guitarist. check out the Soul People Radio podcast.

[rollershoer4life]

They were also interviewed by Waxpoetics magazine in the june 2007 issue.

[destituteillusion]

you know, i pictured this album being recorded in a smoky studio with the lights dim, a tight 7 piece band crammed in..apparently it was recorded track by track, bassist, keys, etc at different times. roy ayers is the man for making it seem like one studio session..classic

[shada411]

Yes this was a side project for Roy Ayers. The name RAMP originally stood for "Roy Ayers Musical Production". Order the recently released CD and you'll see all the credits.

[Questbx1]

thanx

[Questbx1]

in 1997 i went on a serious hunt to find the original group that made daylight i thought it was roy ayers or donald bryd i was thrown off cause roy ayres name was no were to be found, is this really his production

[destituteillusion]

yup. RAMP = Roy Ayers Musical Production

[gamefanatic1131]

Dont I feel dumb now.

[Questbx1]
