When keyboardist-composer-producer George Duke made a return trip to the heyday of funk on his 2008 recording, Dukey Treats, he reminded his fans and the music press of exactly what made the good old stuff so good.Déjà Vu is a glance back, but with a very contemporary sensibility - a piece of work that comes together very much in the present, but also conjures up a persistent feeling of something great that came before.Still, Déjà Vu does feature a few more shades of straightahead and contemporary jazz than its predecessor - as evidenced by fine guest performances throughout the record by trumpeter Nicholas Payton, flutist Hubert Laws and saxophonist Bob Sheppard.Déjà Vu is a glance back, but with a very contemporary sensibility - a piece of work that comes together very much in the present, but also conjures up a persistent feeling of something great that came before.
