Reach For It is a vivid musical celebration of the master keyboardist, composer all-round genius and great guy - George Duke (1946-2013).
Tracing his work from the Zappa years as a key member of the Mothers through a glittering multi-album solo career and highlighting his heavyweight collaborations (Al Jarreau, Stanley Clarke, Billy Cobham, et al) and Montreux triumphs, Dukey's music provides a fantastic melodic canvas for these six wonderful players to express themselves. Expect impeccable ensemble musicianship of the very highest order, some rock - some funk - some jazz, with solos and vocals to take the breath away.
Reach For It is:
* Gina Foster - vocals (George Duke Band, Eric Clapton, Sinead O'Connor).
* Carl Hudson - keyboards/vocals (PB Underground, Sister Sledge, Average White Band, Jocelyn Brown).
* Kim Murray – guitar (Joyce Sims, Leroy Burgess, Carmen Rodgers).
* Mike Mondesir - bass (Jeff Beck, Billy Cobham, John McLaughlin, Whitney Houston).
* Karl Van den Bossche – percussion (Robert Palmer, Incognito, Brand New Heavies, Joss Stone, Sade).
* Geoff Dunn - drums (Van Morrison, Incognito, Joe Cocker, Donna Summer).
