George Benson: The Greatest Guitarist…what A Career..10grammy by Tetrahedron: 12:43pm On Apr 17
I stumbled on this tune, and I could remember it was a tune that was popular theme on radio in the 80s and probably 90s, then searched online only to discover that the artist is none only but “George Benson” kids growing up in the 80s and 90s will remember this particular song.
He has won 10 Grammy awards! and he is a black man so I don’t believe in racism in grammys, if you are good you will win Grammy!
Luckily for us he is still alive but very aged now and sick I think.

Indeed. George Benson was one of the greats of the cross-over/funky jazz era. In the same league was the late Grover Washington Jnr. Grover was a genius of the tenor and soprano sax. He was in fact known as the 'Architect of the funky jazz genre'.

In the same genre, you must have appreciated the works of Eric Gale, Hubert Laws, Hank Crawford, Lee Oscar, Wynton and Branford Marsalis and so on. Well, Jazz music is seen by many as too elitist and aristocratic, but in sheet music lies class and elegance.
