The scope of keyboardist-composer-producer George Duke's imprint on jazz and pop music over the past forty years is almost impossible to calculate. He has collaborated with some of the most prominent figures in the industry. A producer since the 1980s, he has crafted scores of fine recordings - many of them GRAMMYÒ winners - for artists representing almost every corner of the contemporary American music landscape.
With more than thirty solo recordings in his canon and a resume that spans more than 40 years, Duke joins forces with the Heads Up label with the August 26, 2008, release of Dukey Treats, a return to the old-school funk sensibilities of icons like James Brown, Sly and the Family Stone and Parliament/Funkadelic. A careful balance of rhythmic energy and simmering balladry, Dukey Treats recalls the golden age of funk and soul, while at the same time maintaining a fresh sound and addressing issues that are relevant to the global culture of the 21st century.
“I feel a responsibility to carry positive messages in my music,” says Duke. “I think music is meant to lift people up. I don't think you can push things under the rug and not address them. Those who have the ability and the opportunity to let people know what's going on musically and socially should not be afraid to say it and do it and play about it and sing about it.”
