Two Jazz Greats Finally Collaborate

Jazz/crossover legends George Benson and Al Jarreau have been dazzling audiences with their live performances and studio work (13 Grammy® Awards between them) for the last three decades. Slated to tour together in the summer of 2006, George and Al decided to take it one step further: record an album together of classic and original material. An all-star cast headed by Stanley Clarke, Chris Botti, Marcus Miller and even Paul McCartney, contributed their musical genius to Givin’ It Up. Soul divas Jill Scott and Patti Austin pair off for guest vocal duets with George and Al, respectively.


Legends Sound Even Better on SuperDisc™

Besides the stereo disc included for your CD player or car stereo, Monster Music brings you Benson, Jarreau and company in full HDS High Definition Surround™ on a SuperDisc for your DVD player. Better than normal stereo, music in High Definition Surround puts you right in the middle of the music. It’s exciting, moving, and the way the artists intended you to hear it.
