Billy Cobham-George Duke-Band "Stratus" (B.Cobham) Billy Cobham - drums George Duke- keyboards Carl Orr - guitar Stefan Rademacher - bass Montreux Jazzfestival 1998
My inspiration to keep playing after my young wife passed away (25), was Billy Cobham. Nobody wanted to play that stuff up here, till I got the local radio to play some Mahavishnu, and some other fusion, late night.......wow! Really caused a ruckus and changed the face of radio in Cairns. 25 years later, as a drumschool principal and promoter, I got the chance to bring Billy to Cairns, with Randy Brecker, Mike Chindamo, Carl Orr...man it was truly like all my Christmases came at once.
Yesterday was January 12, 2020 what would have been professor George duke 74 birthday, I can only imagine, what he would be doing in 2020, thanks for the memories , I miss him a lot. Your number 1, fan, still jamming your music in Memphis, tn.
This is not a song, this is master piece and purpouse of life of four people on the stage doing what they do the best. I can't get enough of this song.
Man... from a bass players view of this killer tune... it is not how many notes you can throw all over the song but very simple.. where you put your notes. So simple but a total groove. Try playing it and "keep up". Awesome. Love Mr. Cobham et al.
Tony from Adelaide Australia. Carl Orr used to play Mahavishnu tunes at pub here. Thought WTF. Great to see his career blossom. Great take of fusion classic.
George & Frank... just got a clip from my son who is at Ronnies Scotts listening to Carl Orr so decided to go back in time and listen to some good old music here in Shanghai. Carl is also a cool dude.
???????, completely wrong...., he dont start to use it till 73 or 74...., with zappa...., he refuse to use it when zappa offers to him for the first time...., emerson and wackeman make it all with it to much time before he start to use it....
Stefan Rademacher on Bass is a very solid foundation, i wonder whos the guitar player. I do really really like his playing, phrasing and sound, George Duke and Billy Cobham i knew for the oasr 35 years... They won't be comin back unfortunately. This tune has got me hooked ever since i've heard it first.
So...i love this since i was 13 Years old...i met so many people till yet who can feel that sound,rhythem...some do it easy some not and this people not wich very sad is...i want also tell that the most of this people wich like this are musicians...funny he? ..
Antes cuando la musica era real esa es la frase correcta George Duke y Billy Cobham. no puedo creer que ya estoy en el cielo y no supe cuando ha ya me acorde fue cuando presione PLAY sobre el video y creo que me quedare aqui asta que muera presionando el boton REPLAY

this song is on the play list of every band i played bass with since 1980
George Duke on Keyboards - brillant!
Carl Orr = Brilliant!!
Incredible. So much fun listening to this master piece!
Masterclass performance. Everything about this is cool. Meeting Billy and talking drums was one of the highlights of my life.
Most powerfull version! Duke is " Duke " One and only, Billy-legend! How they play...man!
Man... from a bass players view of this killer tune... it is not how many notes you
can throw all over the song but very simple.. where you put your notes.
So simple but a total groove.
Try playing it and "keep up". Awesome. Love Mr. Cobham et al.
heavy. Love Duke's comping under the guitar solo and of course, the Moog solo.
After the beginning I all of a sudden wanted to learn the bass,drums, keyboard and guitar to this tune.
music made from musicians to musicians.. other world!! really nice!
Recently found these Duke and Cobham collaborations and they are the bomb. The rapport is off the charts.
very special... the best from the best... miss you George Duke!
Tony from Adelaide Australia. Carl Orr used to play Mahavishnu tunes at pub here. Thought WTF. Great to see his career blossom. Great take of fusion classic.
Just look at George’s face at 0:33.. you know it’s gonna be a hell of a jam. RIP.
MY FAVORITE BILL COBHAM PERFORMANCE....PERIOD.............he put a life into that last note!!!!!!!!!!!
i was there .... best concert ever
George Duke try to come in before, and then manages to hide the thing soooo nicely .... they all have really huge balls. Great job!
HOPE THIS FEELIN NEVER ENDS
Great track! George Duke never fails to inspire! How gifted these guys are!
George and his minimoog babe... whaou!! one of the best at it!
If not the best
RIP George! and amazing Billy still nailed it 3+ years ago with their Spectrum 40 tour.

Ce sont les plus grands de tous les temps !

George & Frank... just got a clip from my son who is at Ronnies Scotts listening to Carl Orr so decided to go back in time and listen to some good old music here in Shanghai. Carl is also a cool dude.

We. All have our opinions. Bro. ✌️

yeah man...
This sing still blows me away!!
Awesome! Love it, sounds amazing!
OMG.... best version ever!! Duke is so focused.. having a blast!!
Duke is a Master, Cobham is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!
Always good to see Duke and Cobham together... that single stroke snare drum roll at the beginning is textbook.....
I'm glad I found this video. It's refreshing to see people have a big soul for music.
George Duke rules!! Desert island stuff to be sure.
Thanks
One of the best I've ever heard.
What a kind performance!
After all this time: WOW! Many thanks!
Got damn it's back in all it's glory.
Every artist here kicks the pants of his role.
if i needed to pick 1 music to play in loop for rest of my life it would proly be this xD
12 years after they did this performance, they still change the world for many people. Including me!
lucky to have seen these guys live..awesome
wow just simply amazing tune and amazing players here
35 years I first noticed his drumming...he's still making great bands sound unique
Year after year the skill is still here. Great to see duke / cobham playing toghether :D
Die Besten der Besten...
I love the way it just slinks along...
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFantastic ......
very very very very nice ...
RIP Master Duke.
Most important in that groovy song is "less is more". Vinnie didn't realise that. Cobham keeps the groove... Thats the goal of that song.
George Duke just melted my soul
Great groove! Hot licks! Doesn't get much better than this!
Just Fantastic!!!!
Total insanity at it's best. You just don't get it like that no more! Thanks, y'all fer all the great stuff! Peace and blessings. B.
Oh my GoD! George Duke knows something that we did't understand! My Godness!!!

Stefan Rademacher is a bass groove machine :))
I've just bought a Carl Orr album on iTunes and it's great. I didn't know he kept such good company!
So bloody good. Seriously bloody fantastic.
Gotta dig out these ol' vinyls... Such great stuff!
You've now reached the ceiling of human experience
Stefan Rademacher on Bass is a very solid foundation, i wonder whos the guitar player.
I do really really like his playing, phrasing and sound, George Duke and Billy Cobham i knew for the oasr 35 years...

The world is worse off without him.
To the world the masterpiece)))
George is just too much good stuff! Introduces band. "Carl Orr!. ... hey man where you goin'?"
My favorite song when I was playing drums , the ultimate nightmare for my neighbors (and me as well for different reasons ...).

Stefan Rademacher is pure groove.
