About the album
Even before the recording of his first album, at just 21 years old, George Benson has relished the role of using his now legendary musical gifts to entertaining his audience.
"As a kid I sang, danced, and played the ukulele in a nightclub. I've had the pleasure of playing with the baddest jazz cats on the planet. But that doesn't change my desire to entertain folks. That's really who I am."
His love for the audience and desire to get them moving to his music, coupled with his masterful musicianship, have resulted in a storied career.
Already successful in the Jazz world, George's rise to bonafide superstardom started with the 1976 release of Breezin." It hit #1 on the Pop, R&B and Jazz charts, and featured the top 10 Pop hit, "This Masquerade." Since then, George has scored numerous chart hits, including the smashes, "On Broadway," "Give Me The Night" and "Turn Your Love Around."
George has enjoyed huge commercial success, industry awards - including 10 GRAMMYS - the adoration of millions of fans and, perhaps most complimentary to his musical prowess, collaborations with many of the all-time legends of the music world. All have been instrumental in fulfilling his lifelong passion to entertain the masses.
