Life Rays is an album by vibraphonist Walt Dickerson, bassist Sirone, and drummer Andrew Cyrille.

Dickerson's final release, it was recorded in Italy in 1982 for the Soul Note label.

[4] The authors of the Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings wrote: "In the dynamic company of Sirone and Cyrille, Walt emerges as a particular kind of modernist, a radical-conservative... Dickerson seems to be striking harder than usual, Cyrille is faultless and the music has a strongly percussive quality.

Sirone is magnificent whenever soloing..."[5] Writing for JazzTimes, Duck Baker commented that Dickerson's "conception of melodic/percussive development is really his own.

Regarding Sirone and Cyrille, he stated: "The context calls for the utmost in understatement and controlled passion, and even staunch fans of these two may be surprised at how well they answer the call.
