Feel (George Duke album)

Feel is the fourth studio album by the American keyboard player George Duke, released on October 28, 1974, by MPS Records. The album reached No. 17 on the Billboard Top Jazz Albums chart.

Overview

Duke began experimenting with synthesizer orchestration on this album, which is considered the beginning of his unique style. The album has contributions from Flora Purim, Frank Zappa, John Heard, Airto Moreira and Leon "Ndugu" Chancler.

Critical reception

Jason Elias of AllMusic found, "Although this would be the third album under his name, Feel's eclectic mix of fusion and rock is his debut in the genre of which he'd later become a leader... Feel proves that, even at this relatively early stage, Duke's intelligent ear for melodies and his keyboard prowess set him apart from his contemporaries."
