'Reach For It - the genius of George Duke' is a musical celebration of the master keyboardist, singer, composer, all-round genius and great guy.
Tracing his work from the Zappa years as a key member of the Mothers through a glittering multi-album solo career, his heavyweight collaborations (Stanley Clarke, Billy Cobham, Al Jarreau et al) and Montreux triumphs, Dukey's music provides the melodic canvas for these top players to express themselves. Expect impeccable ensemble musicianship - big funk, groovy jazz and major Brazilian vibes all spiced with masterful soloing from some of Britain's finest!
Carl Hudson-keys (Dexter Wansel, Citrus Sun, James Mason, Culture Club), Tim Cansfield-guitar (Bee Gees, Seal, Stevie Winwood), Phil Mulford-bass (Beyoncé, Lionel Richie, Lewis Taylor), Karlos Edwards-percussion/vocals (Prefab Sprout, Beverley Knight, Brand New Heavies), Geoff Dunn-drums (Van Morrison, Donna Summer, Oleta Adams).
Featuring the fabulous soul lead vocals of Mary Pearce (Chaka Khan, Courtney Pine, Mica Paris, Beverley Knight, Roy Ayres)
