George Benson - Very Best of George Benson - the Greatest Hits of All - CD Review: Fantastic ! - Soul man George was first and foremost a jazzy guitarist - but like Phil Collins - his singing talent shone past his instrumental genius. a true great of soul music - superb collection. Review: A Quality Act - George is now 73 and is still going strong. He will be in the UK this summer. Benson has been successful for an incredible 50 years. He has made approximately 50 singles and 50 albums. This album reached number 4 here. He had a number one here in 1985 with the album ‘Love Songs.’ His album ‘In Your Eyes’ spent over a year in the charts. He has also had 12 top 30 hits here in the singles charts with both In Your Eye and Give me the Night reaching, number 7. His peak period was from 1975 – 1986, when he was charting continuously all over the world. He has his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This man is truly one of the legends of Jazz/ R&B /Pop. He is still in great demand and you’ll have to cough up £50 for the cheapest tickets and double that for the front stalls at his concerts. It’s difficult to know what else to say about such a quality act, other than it impossible not to appreciate his music and to give it five stars. This is a lovely album to listen to.

Typical Club Music
This album sound is exactly the type of sound I wanted brings back memories of when I used to dance in the club's when I was younger, it's a good quality no fuss artist ( George Benson) and far as I remember Benson also does quite a lot of guitar duos ( jazzy blues ) which is also very good, a talented artist!

Expect great--you get it here.
This is a case of knowing you are going to think Benson's 'Best' will be great before you've heard the first note. His album, although not exactly jazz in a pure sense, will be my feature on the next show. George is a great entertainer...it's as simple as that. Some of the best may be from the 80's, but there's no timeline cutoff for imminently listenable, toe-tapping music. Apart from that, it reminded me of sultry, erotic summer days on the boat....ahhhh. g

"The Very Best Of" - George Benson
George Benson è un fenomeno: è acclamato nel mondo del jazz per il suo virtuosismo alla chitarra (spesso improvvisando in scat parallelamente alle sue linee di chitarra) ed è una superstar nel Pop e R&B per la sua voce calda e melodica. Questa compilation cerca di coprire entrambe le sfaccettature. La selezione è ricca e ben bilanciata tra i suoi successi vocali più noti e i brani strumentali che lo hanno reso una leggenda del jazz fusion: Le Hit Pop/R&B Essenziali: La raccolta si apre con i brani che lo hanno portato alla fama globale, spesso prodotti dal genio di Quincy Jones: "Give Me The Night" "Turn Your Love Around" "Love X Love" "Never Give Up On A Good Thing" Sono presenti le sue interpretazioni più toccanti, che mostrano la sua abilità come cantante Soul: "Nothing’s Gonna Change My Love For You" "The Greatest Love Of All" (spesso associato a Whitney Houston, ma la sua è l'originale) "Feel Like Making Love" I Capolavori Jazz e Fusion: L'inclusione di questi brani è cruciale per capire il suo genio strumentale: "Breezin’" (il brano strumentale che ha definito l'album omonimo) "This Masquerade" (con la sua memorabile improvvisazione vocale/scat sulla chitarra) "Moody’s Mood" (eccellente esempio di Vocal Jazz/Scat) "Nature Boy" La presenza di "Love All The Hurt Away – With Aretha Franklin" è un bonus di grande valore per l'appassionato, trattandosi di un duetto tra due giganti del Soul. Questo CD singolo di 20 brani è una delle migliori panoramiche che si possano trovare su George Benson. È un'ottima vetrina della sua versatilità, offrendo il giusto mix tra il chitarrista jazz (per i puristi) e il cantante R&B/Pop (per il pubblico più ampio). L'acquisto è altamente consigliato. È un CD che offre qualità, virtuosismo e successi in un unico pacchetto completo.
