 "One
of the great guitarists of all time, an instantly recognizable player, soulful,
expressive, great chops and he sings too!" I really got into George during
his CTI period both as a leader and a sideman. One of my favorite albums is "Bad
Benson" especially the track "My Latin Brother" which I used to
cover with my group way back when. "Beyond the Blue Horizon", "White
Rabbit" and "Benson & Farrell" are great albums too. I also
loved his playing on the Freddie Hubbard album "First Light" and I remember
transcribing his solo on the title track back in my school days. "Congratulations
on the lifetime achievement award George; your music has brought great joy to
musician's and music fans the world over." - Brian
