Our Take

George Duke's "No Rhyme No Reason" is a funky whirlwind of sonic delight that will have you grooving from start to finish. From the moment the first track kicks in with its infectious bassline and George Duke's smooth vocals, you know you're in for a wild ride. The combination of lush instrumentation, slick production, and Duke's undeniable charisma makes this album a must-listen for any music lover. Each track on "No Rhyme No Reason" brings something new to the table, from the soulful balladry of "Love Can Be So Cold" to the funky strut of "Sugar Loaf Mountain." Duke's knack for blending genres and pushing boundaries is on full display here, creating a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly original. But what really sets this album apart is Duke's incredible musicianship. His piano and keyboard work is nothing short of virtuosic, weaving in and out of the mix with precision and flair. It's clear that Duke is a master of his craft, and his talents shine brightly on every track. Overall, "No Rhyme No Reason" is a tour de force of funky goodness that will have you hitting repeat again and again. George Duke may be gone, but his music lives on in this fantastic album. Don't miss out on this gem of a record - it's one for the ages.
