Outstanding concert! I have been a fan of Stanley's music since the mid 70's! Prior to this concert I had never had the opportunity to see him live. Not only was the show excellent, we (my son and I) also got a chance to get his autograph! If that was not enough he also allowed me to take his picture with my 20 year old son!! Without a doubt a true gentleman that cares enough about his fans to take time out after a gruling concert to sign autographs and allow photos to be taken.

I wasn't very familiar with Stanley Clarke prior to attending this event, and I'm not the typical demographic sample (GenX, alt music lover), but I was blown away by Stanley's musical talent. You can't describe it solely as jazz, or funk, or fusion; to me, it defied all of those labels and took on a life of its own. The music emanated a wisdom that Stanley has accrued from a lifetime of playing, and every vibration of every string was packed with emotion.
It was an amazing show, I'm glad I went, and I'd go again in a heartbeat.

Although Stanley's playing was excellent, the sound was terrible.
His electric sets were almost unlistenable because it was so loud that most of the time you couldn't hear the individual instruments or notes.
The Acoustic sets were much better. You could actually hear what was being played and Stanley played a great Solo.
He should get a new sound crew and fire the Led Zeppelin leftovers working for him now.

From a teenager, I've always loved Stanley Clarke. My jazzy Dad first turned me on to him; and I've been hooked ever since. Have every album --remember albums? and of course, CD's and Ipod downloads. Saw him once about a 100 years ago with Weather Report at Meadowbrook in Rochester Hills, MI. One of the greatest concerts ever with Chick Corea, as well. But Stan and his music havent' aged a bit. His performance had the crowd leaping to their feet and dancing and singing along. Loved it! He and George Duke came to play and play they did. It's extra great when they're having as much fun as the audience. Awesome!

Stanley and George are tremendously talented and bring their style to a wide varity of music during the set. From Fusion to Funk to Jazz standards they were great. The bands interaction with the crowd was funny and welcoming.

Stanley Clarke & George Duke played just as long as the local unheard of group that opened up for them. Half of the songs were funk songs written for others. Def not a "Wednesday night jazz" series concert!!!

BBKings has a terrible sitting policy, so terrible I doubt I would go back, they won't let you reserve a table, and if you get there early to be able to get a table and watch the show comfortably they won't seat you until your whole party has arrive, so you risk watching the show standing against a column. That already happened to me last year and I left after a while, I came back because Stanley Clarke and George Duke are simply magnificent artists and deserve all strains and efforts to go and see them. Their performance was extraordinary.
So BBKINGS has to change their sitting policy and their Chef also, as for Stanley and George all my respect and gratitude for a great show.

I have been listening to Stanley Clarke & George Duke for over 40 years and they are two of my favorites. I watched them progress from prodigies to the prolific careers they now enjoy. I took my wife, 27 year old daughter and my 24 year old son. It was the first time my children witness either of these musicians in person and they were both blown away with the performance. Stanley and I are months apart in age and it was amazing to hear and see him perform at such a high level. The mastery of acoustic and electric instruments is what has separated these two from the rest of the pack for years.
I am hopeful that they will return to BB Kings in the near future.

We got to BB Kings rather early and my first impression was that folks weren't that interested in this duo anymore and because it wasn't very crowded. But by the time 8 o'clock rolled around it was standing room only.
What a performance! They are both musical legends in their own right and they demonstrated why they deserved those titles.
The only issue I had was that the sound system at BB Kings? It was really messed up and Stanley's bass sounded muffled and the sound people couldnt seem to do anything about it.
Too bad for us and shame on BB Kings for allowing the to happen with such great performers. It's a music venue so the sound systems should be in great working order.

The show was amazing, both performers were excellent in their own right and the new talent of their 21-year old drummer was over the top. The seating at (BB Kings) is on a first come first serve bases, our seats were not that great, but the show was well worth it. I recommend the highest rating for this show.

The concert was very good. It was great to hear George Duke and Stanley Clark live! I wanted to hear more from them. The time given to the drummer was admirable, but it took time away from Duke and Stanley. Stanley played the heck out of the stand-up bass as well as the guitar. And, I was thoroughly entertained by George playing both key boards at the same time. I heard some ot the songs I wanted to hear, but I would have loved hearing so much more! Bring them back.

Have been a Duke fan since days with Cannon Ball Adderly. First exposed to him on a Jazz Station out of Rochester , NY (WHAM). Have been following him "musically" ever since...and seen close to 10 times in concert. Clarke "was"...and "still" is the baaaaadest bassest around! Following him since his days with "Return To Forever." AND...Saw them in concert...and have to admit...that sound was "EXACTLY" like the recording. One Word: AWESOME! Duke and Clarke "both" produce some of the most purest sweetest sounds on the planet. Love 'Em!!!
