Snapshot

EW's GRADE
B

Details Lead Performance: George Duke; Genre: Jazz

Among the popular supercolliders of jazz, soul, and pop, keyboardist George Duke is a rare natural. R&B is the foundation of Snapshot's tracks, and soul stars such as Jeffrey Osborne and Deniece Williams serve up vocal cameos. But Duke's harmonic savvy, as well as some crisp jazz riffs, keep this smooth, agreeable album from the numbskullduggery of its ''contemporary jazz'' contemporaries. B
