Description
To people born in the '70s, George Benson is a polished pop star. But this 1973 Creed Taylor-produced recording shows his straight-ahead jazz roots and his guitar debt to the great guitarist Charlie Christian. With bassist Ron Carter, drummer Jack DeJohnette, keyboardist Harold Mabern, and saxophonist Frank Foster, Benson digs into some lean and mean swinging. He lays down some in-the-pocket-lines on Latin-flavored tunes like "Dance" and "Plum." The title track and its alternate take move with a disco beat, and the midtempo "Top of the World" displays more of Benson's fancy fretwork. For George Benson's younger fans, this rerelease is an amazing discovery. For older jazz heads, it's a beautiful blast from his soulful past.
