ರಾಯ್ Ayers

I'm sat here singing the words to Programmed for Love, Roy Ayers, released in 1985 on the album You Might be Surprised. It's a tune played to me (well I was listening) whilst I was doing my maths home work at 14. If ever there was a first time I said WTF?! that was it. The only people I ever saw playing the xylophone before Roy was Patrick Moore and sprats on New Faces, and they were not cool.
I've met Roy and bought him a drink so I kind of feel like I can say this.
If I ruled the world I would make sure that all car horns, whistles, and moaning wives would sound like this.
Amen Roy
