[@vanomaden]

I was there ... ran into Billy in a roadside caffe and we had a chat over a coffee - he is the best!! Also talked to George .. R.I.P. He´s greatly missed.

[@Gottaknowbetterful]

We lost a lot of FUN-K, JAZZ muscle... Miss you, George!

George Duke!!!!!!

[@fleebo82655]

billy cobham= monster

[@Thadrummer]

I could walk 500 miles listening to that bass line, this song grooves. Wish I was there playing the drums, as long as I could do it justice like my hero Billy Cobham.lol

[@weckled]

It is unbelievable.George is the man.

[@joshuajuaire8757]

Yah BABY

[@jimmyb1133]

He is missed !

[@fess04]

love Billys playin here..........

[@busc]

I agree. Nothing grooves like a walking bass line with a funk/hip hop beat in the drums. This is great.

[@TheLexuses71]

Such an incredible jam. Made all the better with Billy Cobham on skins. Awesome.

[@olkevj8er]

It's amazing how many songs that include that little rift........LOL

[@laketahoeron]

[@Thadrummer]

I would walk 500 miles with that bass line, this song grooves!! Makes me think of a Chick Corea for some reason.

[@henniebogan1]

im tripping on acid right now and this is SICKKKKKKK hahahahah OMG

[@markee2006]

I don't think this is a return to forever composition .This track came for george dukes Illusions cd back in 1994 this is undoubtedly a george duke composition.

[@druellapartee2010]

😀Miles on Chords!

[@Thadrummer]

Return to forever, thats right.Thats why it sounded familiar to me lol.

[@HammondB200]

yeah that's strange 'cause Stefan was following Carl while Billy was following George

[@dkofva]

Just wish I learned to play the "drums" for my own self, instead of "imitating" the heroes so: Bill, Max, Buddy, Al, Terri, Bernard, Art, Elvin. I was a great imitator, but not a great "innovator" coming up. NOw I can devote my latter years to excellence and sensitivity on the drumset/trapparatus, etc. Be my own inspiration. Peace-dk

[@SuperMusicology101]

did i just hear a little Salt Peanuts wow

[@charlesandhisworld]

yesssss you did!!!!

[@markee2006]

No this is a George Duke compositiion its from his illusions album from 1994 i have the CD.

[@markee2006]

The CD version of this track sounds way better.

[@HammondB200]

[@Extrikit]
