We just lost another great musician.
Shit... 67 isn't old! :(
"George Duke leaves behind a monstrous music legacy, which spans
from the 1960s to present day. He has played with everyone from
Sonny Rollins, Dexter Gordon and Miles Davis to Frank Zappa, George
Clinton and Anita Baker. Perhaps Duke will be most remembered for
one of his earliest works, The Jean Luc Ponty Experience with the
George Duke Trio. Rest in peace, George Duke."

Amazing chops, undeniable funk, but always lots of humor and
interaction with the crowd!!
That opening solo on Zappa's "Eat That Question" will always
totally slay me and make me feel glad to be alive.
