Dear
George, thank you so much for all genius work over all these years and for letting
me be a small part of it. Thanks for the Grammy we won for "Turn Your Love
Around" and I hope you have a great time at the awards and hope we can work
together again soon. God Bless. - Steve Lukather / Toto
| "George
Benson is simply put, one of the greatest musicians and entertainers of the last
century. He is one of a handful of individuals who truly defy categorization.
His technical and musical abilities are exceptional as well as unique his love
of all types of music is obvious in everything he does." -
Earl Klugh | "George
Benson has been the consumate guitarist for what seems like a lifetime. To be
the barometer for greatness in guitar for so many years indelibly confirms his
status as quite possibly the greatest jazz guitarist of all times." Congratulations
George from a humble fan! - Everette Harp |
| "Working
with George has been one of the greatest things to happen to me. There is so much
I can say about George, this one instance will give you an insight as to the person
he is; When I was 19, and with very little experience, he invited me to tour with
his band. He provided the encouragement and belief in me to mature as a musician.
Sometimes I feel this occurred at the expense of his own career efforts and the
only reward being, simply, helping me achieve my dreams. This is the person George
is to me. I will be forever grateful." - Earl Klugh
