Fusion, funk, and rock keyboard legend George Duke gives us a tour of his home studio, "Le Gonks West." Look for a major feature in Keyboard soon on his upcoming new album "Dreamweaver."

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 :-(

Since the 70s I have been inspired by George Duke and listen to his music nearly every day. All started for me with the Reach for It album. So so funky. A big loss for sure, but lives on when folk like you and I still listen and think about this guy.

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.

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).

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

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.

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.
