CLARKE STANLEY/DUKE GEORGE/CLARKE DUKE PROJECT II

Descripción

IT WAS PRETTY OBVIOUS WITH THE ENORMOUS SUCCESS OF THE FIRST CLARKE/DUKE PROJECT THAT A SECOND WOULD COME OUT SOON ENOUGH AND IT DID A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER. IF YOU LOVE STEAMY JAZZ ALONG WITH SOME FUNKY FUSION YOULL APPRECIATE THE EFFORT BY THESE TWO MASTERS OF THEIR CRAFT. THE TWO SONGS THAT OPEN THE ALBUM PUT IT ON THE LINE (SUNG BY CLARKE) AND HEROES (SUNG BY DUKE) HAVE A RIGID VERY FAST ELECTRO NEW WAVE TEMPO COMMONLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE MUSIC OF FLASH DANCE. THE MOST ORGANIC SOUNDING SONG ON THE ALBUM EVERY REASON TO SMILE ALSO INCLUDES A GOSPEL CHOIR ON THE CHORUS ALONG WITH A GUEST VOCAL FROM HOWARD HEWETT.
