Just watching this video made me a little teary eyed because Sir George was a Giant in the world of music. Listening to him speak about all of his gear that he's used in some of his legendary recordings is a testament to his incredible musicianship. Thank you for the rich legacy of music that you've left us all to enjoy forever and your musical contributions and the many people that you've inspired with your music .You and the love of your love ,Corrine are together again . RIP :-(

The love for his craft comes through in this video. He's truly one of our treasures of musical culture. I've always wished that I could play like as he does when I grow up, even 1/4 of that ability and I'm content.

Good trip George , thanks for everything ...

Thanks for the inspiration eternally. R.I.P.

Rest in Peace George thanks for sharing your heart with the world!

He had a Planet Phatt 😎 That crisp Rhodes sound of his was so beautiful! 😍 It’s wonderful and sad at the same time to see him here, he is still as happy and enthusiastic as ever, while clearly being really sick at the same time. 😔

Distinctive, loving and caring musician...impossible not to remember him...

I simply love reading all the comments of respect and admiration for Mr. George Duke. I agree with them all and would only add mine to pile on! He shook my hand after a concert and made eye contact like you wish every human would-He was kind, honest, clean, and both willing to give and receive the love. We are all blessed that he followed his incredible style and passion to all the marvelous and beautiful destinations his music creates. Your musical heart is part of my life. Thank you, Mr.Duke. --jazzdaze

One of the nicest guys in the music industry, I really enjoyed watching this studio tour - thanks for sharing!. The best thing I see there is how much gear he has, so much old outboard, analogue, VA, computers and all the rest. A lifetime of music gear acquisition syndrome :)

RIP George Duke. Not just a great great musician, but a ground breaking electronic Jazz & Fusion Artist and a seriously smart Man. The great American Jazz guys are really amazing guys.When he turned on the Rhodes at 6:20, WOW that is just beautiful.

A friend and loved by all is off to a new journey to bring a new sound and experience into another Realm, a talent like that will always be busy even in the new world, See you on the other side because i can hear those synth's from the Universe George D

Rest in Peace George Dukes!!! so much passion and love for the music, true legend.

I miss you a lot my hero Rest in Keys George Duke

Master minimoog player and rhodes as well, you'll be missed,,thanx for making my love of minimoogs come true! Hope your afterlife journey is a beautiful one! Rip george!!!

Enjoyed every second of that, seeing the workplace of a master, and that beautiful Rhodes for one...The size of it! Thanks:)

Together with Chick Corea the best Rhodes player ever , imho. May his wife rest in peace surrounded by the HEAVENLY MUSIC of her husband.

it is a grievous loss for the whole world. You'll stay forever in our hearts.

Now Heavens Jazz section just got a lot funkier!!! Have a safe trip George!!

George was a hero of mine. I loved the way he played!

Just think of all the great music that's come out of that studio. George Duke is truly a legend and a master indeed.

Maestro Duke...you shall be missed ....Hard to believe you passed away...I will see you again.

RIP George Duke , peace to the family .

A Great Musician, Master...RIP....

You left us too early, George...but you left us with so many memories and great recordings. R.I.Peace

Don Freeman here. Spent a lot of time in the that studio working with Jeffrey Osborne and George as producer. I played keyboards and co-wrote “ Don’t You Get So Mad” with Jeffrey and Michael Sembello who played guitar on that track. We cut the basic tracks at The Complex in Culve😅City which was owned by Maurice White And George Massenberg. The next record I did with Jeff and George we cut basic tracks at Lion Share and did overdubs at George’s studio.

RIP George! Hard to believe just a few months later he died, this man was one of my heroes, not just in the jazz genre but in all of the music industry. Talented from top to bottom, a real nice person, one of a kind indeed. And closing with a tour of Le Gonks West, one of premier recording studios in the L.A area (now sold).

Out of all his music....Sweet Baby is my all time favorite, RIH virtuoso!

Great Studio Great artist Great man RIP GD!

RIP MISTER DUKE AND TKS FOR YOUR MUSIC

R.I.P. dear George

When these guys are all gone they will never be replaced , I hope people understand that. They were the product of a lot of suffering that they knew they were under. The generation after never could reach the heights of this generation be it Jazz, Soul or Funk because their struggle was different. When I Hear people calling Kanye West a "genius" I cringe every time.

Love this man. Thanks for this.

This got me thinking about life ..

RIP George!!!!

RIP Brother George

R I P Mr Duke...

RIP George Duke

Thanks GD and SF...great peek into a great's den! Guess im not the only one with gear pile up from time to time.

Am curious about who conducted the interview.. It sounds like Alex Jones when he is not pissed off with the world. Lol! Will forever miss George Duke.

RIP G.D.

One of the great technical masters (RIP), the one and only George Duke.

Stephen, did you get to play anything there? :-) Man, every time I see a George Duke interview, he comes off as the most sincere, affable, enthusiastic guy.

Legendary! 🙏🏾

A look inside the lab of a master!

miss George talent got all his music rest in peace

I love his reaction to hearing one of his keys out of tune..reminds me of my own reaction..

You left WAY to early my brother. Pissed. RIP!

AFTER SEE-ING WHAT HE HAD I WANNA QUIT...DAMN

Very good..

Amazing musician, who obviously had a beautiful spirit. And a Bosendorfer man too....why shouldn't we be surprised? Interesting that all the digital guys, George Duke, Stevie Wonder they never gave up on their acoustic pianos. That should tell the rest of us something shouldn't it??

Rip. Dukey

THE MAN!!

Rest In Peace

Missing you

RIP

I wonder if the studio is still there or if the new owners ripped it out. Also, there's been no releases from George's archive. There must be stuff, who owns it now? Miss you George.

RIP SMH...,

What happened to all of his keyboards etc. and his house, studio etc???

HARDCASTLE..

Poor George was so sick and he died a few months later. His heirs gutted the studio and sold the house

Lol he even called it a keytar. I thought pro keyboardists had another name for it but I'll never know. RIP George Duke.

But that time, he was ill...months later, he was gone...
