George Duke's fantastical sound world
This album showcases Duke's diverse talent, freely moving between the boundaries of jazz and funk.
As the title "Illusions" suggests, the album unfolds with a fantastical, multi-layered sound. It combines the outstanding skills of a keyboard player with the sharp sensibility of a producer. It is an ambitious work that opened up new horizons for jazz fusion in the 1990s.
