George Duke knows how to make the funk bounce, but the fusion great is also skilled in crafting mellow grooves. The dreamy “Summer Breezin'” glistens with soft Brazilian vocals and cascading synth squiggles, while “What Goes Around Comes Around” settles into a leisurely jazz vibe, with Kamasi Washington's alto sax trading licks with Duke's electric piano. “No Rhyme, No Reason” is intoxicating R&B built from endless layers of velvety textures.
