Our Take

If George Duke's discography were a fine wine, then the "George Duke Collection" would undoubtedly be a vintage bottle of pure funk bliss. This album is a sonic journey through the eclectic mind of a musical genius, showcasing Duke's unparalleled talent as a pianist, producer, and all-around funk aficionado.

From the moment the smooth grooves of "Reach for It" kick in, you know you're in for a wild ride. Duke's ability to effortlessly blend jazz, soul, and funk into one cohesive sound is nothing short of remarkable. Tracks like "Shine On" and "Dukey Stick" will have you tapping your feet and bobbing your head in no time.

But it's not just Duke's musical prowess that shines on this album - his production skills are also on full display. The way he expertly layers funky basslines, smooth synths, and intricate rhythms is a testament to his mastery of the studio.

In true George Duke fashion, this collection is a wild, funky, and unpredictable ride from start to finish. So grab a glass of your finest funk juice, sit back, and let George Duke take you on a musical journey like no other. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
