A grand vision of jazz fusion realized
A monumental work of electric jazz that embodies George Duke's musical ambitions.
The fusion of synthesizers and acoustic instruments creates an innovative sound that significantly expands the framework of conventional jazz. The title track, "Guardian of the Light," combines a cosmic sense of scale with a down-to-earth funk groove, demonstrating Duke's high level of compositional ability and arranging skills. As an experiment in fusing electronic music with jazz in the early 1980s, this work also has great historical significance.
