last night Incognito played this song at Java Jazz Festival here in Jakarta. I was in tears because knowing that the legend is not here anymore still hurts. I am sure he was watching from the jazz heaven above!

Good morning I saw g.duke in March to 2013 in Detroit Michigan before he passed away I love his music 🎵🎵🎶🎶.

Best keyboard vid of the year. PHENOMENAL.

[@laracroft9679]

This man is genius I saw him live in the 80s with Stanley Clark.. I feel very lucky to this day what a privilege . Did not know he passed to the other side.. Brazilian love affairs has to be up there with the greatest of all time. What's an incredible talent... Only the chosen ones have his gift

[@fluidjazz]

George was a massive musical influence in my youth, seeing his son's eulogy at his funeral also confirmed to me what a genuine kind spirit he was.

[@TomRivieremusic]

What a killer Bass player too and a young drummer.What a groove these guys have.

[@deniseball9932]

OMG! Who is still listening to this. Can’t get enough of them. Priceless Performance! Truly Awesome. They give me happy chills!! Denise

I met George once at Whiskey Creek Restaurant/Concert venue in Redlands, Cal. 18 years ago. He was very gracious, kind, and completely incredible during the concert. RIP Brother, The Lord has a Mansion picked out just for you because of your faithfulness.

I love this man! George has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, he is the ultimate keyboard player, because he can play on any keyboard ever made! I cried when we lost his wonderful man because there will never be another like him! Rest in peace my musically gifted brotha!

Maybe the duke has died, but his great works still accompany us.

Will there ever ever be such a great keyboard player like George? Thanks for all those nice moments you created in my live. This is music for eternity....

[@wendellwiggins3776]

This album was released a year before my first long anticipated journey to Brazil which turned out to be an extended 6 months adventure of my lifetime. Everything he sings turned out to be more true than I could have ever imagined!

[@happygirl864]

What a voice. Miss you George.

[@naomijones1850]

Ohhhhh-MAN! This is one of the best jazz tracks my ears have ever been blessed with! George, as usual is On Point, musically and vocally; ALL of the band members were were SMOKON', ESPECIALLY George and the two guitarists- the drummer looks like he just graduated high school, but plays like a seasoned veteran! I'm not too familiar with Anders (I've heard of her here and there), but after her performance here, I've become an ardent fan - This was an AWESOME performance by all! Miss you So Much, George! R.I.P. and thank you for your great musical legacy - p.s.: Love your cousin (Dianne Reeves), too.😢😮🤩💯💫🌟😩🎉🤗👏

[@brandom1953]

I love the homage to Frank Zappa at the end of this song. It's hard to believe but George started playing synths and singing only after considerable pressure from Frank to do so. George's singing and synth work on Inca Roads are just amazing. Thanks again Frank for seeing and unleashing this latent talent.

[@DAVEBLISS2007]

Amazing sound, amazing band. It does not get much better than this.

[@igorslocks]

Igor believes that if you want to excel at your job/craft/life it's beneficial to study excellence across many different fields/topics. Each individual puts a twist on the task and these nuggets can allow you to recognize the ropes you skip & the ropes you jump in your own field of endeavor. There is so much top drawer talent on this stage it could almost be termed an embarrassment of riches. Amazing video with amazing musicians & people

[@sammcn]

George Duke remains one of the top 3 influences on my keyboard-playing style and "world". Of about 5 or 6 live versions of B.L.A., this is my favorite. There aren't words to adequately sum of the length and breadth of George's musicianship and spirit. Thank you, dear George Duke.

With every concert video I witness of George Duke, I lament all the more the fact I never got the chance to see him live before he was taken far too early. I'll forever be amazed by his stratospheric talent and the sheer command he had of a keyboard, composing, and of a live show. Those who had the honour of sharing a stage with him know how blessed they were.

A true pioneer and innovator of Funk/Jazz. The originator of the " Dukie Stick" The sweetest vocals you ever heard, who truly understood how to use them in concert with others or solo. He blew life into everything he did. He was what music, good music was all about. He inspired millions.

[@davenatale850]

When I was 16 and got my first car, it had an 8 track player in it. "From Me To You" was playing all the time. It started a lifelong love of George Duke. Don't regret a minute of it;
