Took me back to my college days. Renewed my groove and helped shake the cobwebs off. George Duke and Gerald Albright are alive and well. They brought the house down and made good on the promise of making the Cobb Energy Center into a Convertible. My contemporaries were on their feet! Young folks would have learned what true partying is and where good music comes from!
Great show at country Club Hills! George & Stanley totally jammed, and the 21 year old drummer from Chicago was impressive. My high-lite was when I and other audience members were invited to sing on stage with George & Stanley I was the first person to attempt to sing the Mothership connection it was fun!!! If you are a true Jazz lover you must see this show!
The concert was outdoors and a perfect night. George Duke and Stanley Clark were GREAT! Their opening act Nick Cannon put on a supper show as well. There aren't too many performers left like George Duke and Stanley Clark so if you have an opportunity I strongly sugguest you check them out...
This concert was one of the favorite ones I have ever attended. I am a huge Stanley Clark fan and seeing him with George Duke was a huge bonus! They both were very entertaining, very engaging with the audience. This concert was worth every penny I spent on the tickets!
Great music for many years from these two! Their charisma and musicianship together is uncomparable.Threw it down hard! From funk to R+B and great fusion.The venue also first rate in my book!The Country Club Hills Theater is awesome!Also a special mention to the opening act...The Carlos cannon band!Very much fun!Carlos is a very skilled sax player and entertained the crowd to no end!
The weather was gorgeous, our seats were row 7, section B, dead center. What could be better? From start to finish, the concert was on point. The opening act was great, and kept the crowd happy and engaged. When Duke and Clark came out, it was ON! They did all their hits, and talked to the crowd like we were old friends. Sharing, laughing, teasing, joking...it was all good! There was a bit of a problem with Duke's keyboard leaning and it took the venue a minute to fix it, but he just turned to the piano and kept the show moving - not a second lost. These are musical performers - geniuses! The drummer was a 21 year old local who got 2 solos (one would have been enough), and the keyboardist was fantastic. Clark mesmerized me with his techniques on the bass cello and bass guitar. Duke is a master of accoustics. I had such a great time, it was one of the best concerts ever at CCHT.
I had the pleasure of seeing George and Stanley at the Country Club Hills Theatre. The atmosphere was perfect. The performance was excellent showing the range and depth of two of the most gifted musicians on the planet. These two have the long habit of not playing their instruments, but playing with their instruments. Truly amazing how many combinations of notes can come from 88 keys and just 4 strings. Perhaps the best part of the show was listening to the drummer play. He is 21 years old, from the Chicago area, and has the opportunity to tour and play with seasoned and very professional musicians. To their credit, George Duke and Stanley Clarke have a long history of bring new and upcoming musicians to the stage. Having the opportunity to play with these two is an experience that can't be replaced. The songs played moved the audience, swaying, dancing and singing along. I welcome any opportunity to see these guys play. Have gig? Will travel!
George and Stanley again showed why they are the best in the field of Jazz. I've followed both for over thirty years and other than getting older they continue to stay on top of their game.
George Duke and Stanley Clarke are TRUE musicians! Excellent show!
Love seeing these two together...two of the best jazz musicians on the planet!
Couldn't have been better. Took me to a very memorible place.
the duo touched all the right spots. they were enthusiastic they enjoyed doing the show as much as i enjoyed listening to it. my one complaint was it was over much to soon. No encores were given
Musicianship at it's very finest! Not only that, but these two have a chemistry that is rarely ever found! The show was enjoyable from the beginning to end. My only complaint is the should have kept on playing all night!
I love george duke, and this show was awesome. I attended alone and was in the george duke zone. loved it!
Stanley Clarke and George Duke both still play as well as they ever have with the same enthusiam and skill as I remember many years ago. It was nice to hear some of Stanley's classics with long improv sections thrown in. The venue was interesting, much smaller than I had imagined, but not a bad seat in the house and the sound was excellent. They only played until 10:30, around 90 minutes or so, wish it was longer. Overall we had a great time listening to great music.
First time at the zoo George Duke brought the funk and MM Marcus Miller was umm umm good
My wife and I enjoyed this very much. We saw David Sanborn last summer and it was a bit disappointing. This provided a great balance of showcasing Marcus Miller, George Duke, and David Sanborn. Liked seeing the full band.
I was hoping to hear the legendary David Sanborn play the sax more than he did ... he didn't seem like he was feeling well, and the show was more about Marcus Miller and George Duke. Don't get me wrong; I love both these guys as well and have many of their CDs ... was just hoping the great David played more. Hope he is okay?? Looked pretty frail.
This was one very exciting and enjoyable concert. These three guys were just fantastic together. I am so glad I was able to attend the concert and I loved every musical minute.
It was a thrill to see such musical powerhouses come together for one phenominal evening. The addition of Louis on drums and Federico on keyboards made for great doubling of parts (between Federico and George) and awesome drumming by Louis. They were all having a great time, and so did the crowd.
