Jazz
Featuring Phillip Bailey, Leon "Ndugu" Chancler, Howard Hewett, Jerry Hey, Tony Maiden, Bennie Maupin, Byron Miller, Chante Moore, and Flora Purim
Following 1998's impressionistic love suite After Hours, contemporary keyboard master George Duke returns to his unique "kitchen sink" approach on Cool. As was the case with Snapshot, Illusions, and Is Love Enough?, several musical bases are covered expertly, all being held together by the singular vision of one of the most talented artists in popular music. Highlights include the sultry "She's Amazing" (featuring Chante Moore), the Brazilian vibe of "If You Will" (featuring Flora Purim), and the gospel power of "The Times We've Known".
George Duke
Active Decades: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and '00s
Born: Jan 12, 1946 in San Rafael, CA
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Funk, Instrumental Pop, Jazz-Pop, Crossover Jazz, Post-Disco
George Duke showed a great deal of promise early in his career as a jazz pianist and keyboardist, but has forsaken that form to be a pop producer. Inspired early on by Les McCann, he worked with a trio in San Francisco during the mid-'60s. In 1969, Duke accompanied Jean-Luc Ponty, recording with the violinist. After eight months with Don Ellis' Orchestra, he joined Frank Zappa for much of 1970. Duke spent 1971-1972 with Cannonball Adderley and then returned to Zappa for 1973-1975. In 1975, he worked with Sonny Rollins, co-led a group with Billy Cobham, and then formed a funk band (the Clarke-Duke Project) with Stanley Clarke. By the late '70s, he was completely outside of jazz, playing R&B and producing projects for pop artists. Although he has since expressed interest in returning to active playing, little of George Duke's post-1976 work is relevant to jazz.
