Presentation

Déjà Vu is a look back at some styles that I was interested in during the early parts of my career. In some ways it’s similar to my previous album “Dukey Treats” but it is a different look back. For one thing I chose to do a lot more synthesizer playing on this album using vintage analog synths along with current technology digital synths. Second, this album ventures into some other musical areas that weren’t covered in “Treats”. A blow by blow is covered below.:
1. A Melody: this tune allows me to visit the “Brazilian Love Affair” vibe in a slightly different way. I had the opportunity to play an extended Voyager (mini moog) solo which I haven’t done in along time. I love this vibe and the vocals are definitely A Melody.
2. You Touch My Brain: actually written for the “Dukey Treats” album but never recorded. This is a real loose “Sly” kind of funk groove that I love so much. It gave me a chance to sing a simple song and though most fans are not used to hearing Ron Bruner Jr. play this way, he puts that simple spice on the drum track allowing the music to flow naturally – after all, Fonk is or is not! And Jef Lee on this track – oh my God!
3. What Goes Around Comes Around: originally written by Everette and myself for the latest Everette Harp album that I produced. With an over abundance of songs it was never recorded for his album. Now, I always liked the tune so I decided to alter it a bit and include it in my package. The melody is played by Everette on soprano sax and me on Voyager, a real nice blending of timbres. This tune may remind some of a funky type of Weather Report vibe. Michael Manson plays great bass on this track along with some tasty guitar work from Ray Fuller. I played synth bass along with computer drums, the latter being programmed to sound like a real drummer. It’s quite tasty if I say so myself!
4. Bring Me Joy: will remind some of a Stevie Wonder song. Again I played lead Voyager. I sing some easy vocals but overall allow the synths to dominate the feeling. Most of the synths are Arp Oddesey and Mini Moog – all played one note at a time to achieve a chord. The vibe solo is a played via Giga Studio, Cool Vibe patch.
5. Ripple In Time: a tribute to Miles Davis from his funky free “Tutu” period. This tune allowed me to create what has been called tone poems using various synths to create the environment. It features Oscar Brashear’s interpretation of Miles, and he did a great job. Ron Bruner is solid throughout as is Jeff Lee on guitar. I played the Marcus Miller sounding bass on this one.
6. Oh Really?: Kinda funky in an off beat way. Ron lays the beat back and we all ride the wave. Once again Jeff Lee is amazing! Larry Kimpel laid the law down on this one as well. My old Wurlitzer 140B sounds like it’s stuffed with socks – and that Castlebar Clavinet – oh boi!!! I can’t neglect that organ – whew, kinda fonky but plenty jazzy at the same time.
7. 6 O’Clock Revisited: exactly what it says. Originally recorded on my Warner Brothers album “Snapshot”. This time I wrote lyrics and changed up the groove. It’s mostly an all synth track except for Ray Fuller on guitar and me on piano.
8. Come To Me Now: a song I wrote some years ago and never recorded. I think it has a great melody and allows me the chance to play some sensitive lead piano – you know, like I like to do...
9. Stupid Is As Stupid Does: a track in the typical jazz tradition of solos by all (except the bass). I used to record these type tracks almost on an everyday basis back in the day – this is truly a Déjà Vu moment. Bob Sheppard, Nicholas Payton and Hubert Laws throw down along with a blazing Nord Lead 3 solo by me followed by a crazy Ron Bruner solo.
10. Déjà Vu: a track where the melody begins very simply and grows and grows. The tune allows me to stretch on a Motif ES8 synth guitar patch and gives Bruner a chance to shine especially at the end of the tune. Mention must also be given to Sarah Thornblade who has quickly become one of my favorite violinists. This tune will remind some of the Mahavishnu Orchestra experience and that is appropriate. A nice piece of writing I might add.
Review

Dйjа Vu is 2010's bookend to 2008's Dukey Treats. That record explored George Duke's funk roots and channeled everything from Earth, Wind & Fire to P-Funk, artists who inspired his own successful run of funk outings. Dйjа Vu revisits Duke's love of electric funky jazz. Here he recalls some of the production and musical techniques he employed in the '70s. Along with playing a load of synths (mono and analog), Rhodes and Wurlitzer electric pianos, clavinet, acoustic piano, and even miniMoog bass are in abundance, too. The production is pure retro; compared to the contemporary jazz recordings of the 21st century, Dйjа Vu sounds almost organic. Duke composed, produced, and arranged the set as well. "A Melody" recalls -- seamlessly -- the sounds and textures explored on 1979's A Brazilian Love Affair. A chorus of backing vocalists glides above a modern samba groove, driven by various synth strings and percussion and rhythms held steady by drummer Ronald Bruner, Jr. and bassist Michael Manson. The breezy melody gives way to some fine inside improvisation. "You Touch My Brain" is slippery laid-back funk а la Sly Stone's Fresh album, with a nice trumpet break by Nicholas Payton. "What Goes Around Comes Around" features some nice piano, an excellent vocal through a synth, and a gorgeous Everette Harp soprano solo. "Ripple in Time" is dedicated to Miles Davis. Duke is is clearly inspired by Davis' Tutu period. It's a lengthy but moody beginning, but cracks into a beautiful funky vamp at the two-minute mark. Duke's bass sound is big and meaty; Oscar Brashear provides excellent trumpet work next to Harp's tenor sax before a badass guitar by Jef Lee Johnson claims the vamp and works it to death. "Stupid Is as Stupid Does" might have come from his Feel or Faces in Reflection outings from the mid-'70s. Hubert Laws' signature flute appears, as does Bob Sheppard's tenor. The title track is the biggest surprise: closing out the album, it reflects the drama of John McLaughlin and Mahavishnu Orchestra, with Duke handling the guitar sounds on a Motif ES8! The violin playing by Sarah Thornblade is a dynamic foil. Dйjа Vu is Duke's most consistently satisfying and eclectic recording since 1995's Illusions. Highly recommended. ~ Thom Jurek

George Duke Revisits The Sounds Of The Golden Age Of Funk And Soul On Déjà Vu. Features guest performances by trumpeter Nicholas Payton,flutist Hubert Laws and saxophonist Bob Sheppard
When keyboardist-composer-producer George Duke made a return trip to the heyday of funk on his 2008 recording, Dukey Treats, he reminded his fans and the music press of exactly what made the good old stuff so good. DownBeat called it “a wild and crazy album, especially if you’re nostalgic about the guitar-scratching, double-clutching rhythms of James Brown and George Clinton and the bedroom ballads of Stevie Wonder and Aaron Neville.” The Philadephia Enquirer called it simply “a valentine to funk.”
Duke returns to that same wellspring for Déjà Vu. The album revisits the synthesizer sound that characterized some of his most memorable recordings from the golden age of funk and soul.
“The whole idea behind Déjà Vu was to take a look back at some of the stuff I used to do that was a little more musically challenging,” says Duke. “In some way or another, whatever happened before always comes around again. It may be a little different, but it will resurface. That’s kind of what this album is – a resurfacing of some ideas I had back in the ‘70s when I recorded albums with a lot of synthesizers, like Feel and The Aura Will Prevail.
Still, Déjà Vu does feature a few more shades of straightahead and contemporary jazz than its predecessor – as evidenced by fine guest performances throughout the record by trumpeter Nicholas Payton, flutist Hubert Laws and saxophonist Bob Sheppard. “These are three very strong instrumentalists,” says Duke. “We do it here just like we did in the old days. Everybody gets a shot at playing. It’s not just me playing a solo and then we take it out. I try to keep it a little more democratic. It’s the typical jazz scenario of the old days, where everybody gets to play.”
Déjà Vu is a glance back, but with a very contemporary sensibility – a piece of work that comes together very much in the present, but also conjures up a persistent feeling of something great that came before. “I’ve always considered myself a multi-stylistic artist,” says Duke. “I try to take people on a musical journey, whether it’s on an album or in a show. I think the style of music that you choose to play is really irrelevant, as long as you’re honest about what you’re trying to present.”
