Layers ‎(LP, Album, Promo). No vocals of which McCann was prone to in the gospel sense are ousted for instrumental genius. This is a laid back affair in the catalog of 70s jazz and on par with the sort of vibe Miles conveyed on his quintessential Kind of Blue. Check out McCann's Invitation if you like this release its in the same instrumental mindset albeit the tracks are longer context and theres less synth is any.

Aside from a three-man percussion section and electric bassist Jimmy Rowser, Layers is entirely electronic, one of the first jazz albums with such an emphasis.

Layers (Les McCann album). Aside from a three-man percussion section and electric bassist Jimmy Rowser, Layers is entirely electronic, one of the first jazz albums with such an emphasis. The song "Sometimes I Cry" has been sampled in several other songs, most notably in Slick Rick's "Behind Bars" and its drum beat in Massive Attack's "Teardrop" and "Bullet Boy".
