 "The
first time I heard him was at the Bottom Line in NYC. My father took me when I
was about 16. He was absolutely amazing! I wasn't into 'jazz' yet, but his mastery
of the guitar was astounding! There was no singing at the time...that would come
later. Some years later, when Special EFX was on the same festival as Benson,
in Detroit, I got to meet him at soundcheck. I remember that he was instantly
friendly and gracious, and humorous standing there saying hello to me, and complimenting
ME on my abilities, while noodling on his jazzbox. That 'noodling' was beyond
anything I could possibly do on the guitar, even today! That's how talented Benson
is! His goofing around on the guitar is in the stratosphere of 6 string heaven!
All in all I've loved his work, through all the different musical periods."
