Been a George Duke fan since 'reach for it.' Then he went and did some commercial music which I thought was very good at the time. He wanted to go back to the fusion style but the label wanted him to stay smooth jazz. He then started his owl label BPM (beats per minute) and release Face The Music. What a album it is. His lineup is incredible! Christian McBride, Jeff Lee Johnson, and Lil' Johnson, with help from Kirk Whalum and Everette Harp, how you can go wrong?! That's the way music should be; Raw and Organic! Great cd.

This an album that is 11 songs strong. Everyone these song will go directly to the heart of a true jazz fan. George Duke is an awesome composer and songwriter. In my opinion every song is a slam dunk. I was certainly impressed to hear that Chris McBride played the upright bass on every song on this cd but one. That is working it. My Piano is so rich and deep with all the different rhythms. It sounds as if George Duke plays every note on the piano at least ten times throughout this song. The arrangement is absolutely excellent. There is so much music in this one song. George has fused together so many genres. This song will take you to up and set you back down again gently where it first began.

This is a guy that does it all. Face the Music is one of his best work. McBride on the bass and the horn section are second to none. Modern jazz with a traditional-fusion feel. Black Messiah and Ten Mile Run are the gems on this LP.

One of the best works George Duke has done. Christian McBride on Bass was an awsome choice.
