Snapshot

Snapshot / George Duke (1992)



Fusion, funk, soul music and jazz...
Georege Duke was succeeded with colorful musicality as an artist,a composer and a producer.

The is the first album after he transferred the registration to Warner.
This album the one I love so much!

Elegant, but it's funky,
Instrumental tune and vocal song.
It's slow with up tempo.
It's rich in a variety but unified.
I like his slow number in particular,


" No Rhyme, No Reason " and "Ooh Baby " are really captive in this album.

His high-pitched voice is very clean!
Whether Philip Bailey is a lead vocal, I have misunderstood at first.

How do you say if Philip Bailey participated in this album?
The luxurious member gethered to sing this tune"Fame".
Ｗｈａｔ a funky and at the sametime COOL!
