Expect some his of his biggest as 'Give Me The Night', 'On Broadway' and 'This Masquerade', but also some lesser known instrumental tracks.
Guitarist and singer George Benson began his career as a jazz guitarist at a young age. Benson gained mainstream success with his 1976 album 'Breezin'', which included the hit singles ‘This Masquerade', and the title song 'Breezin'. However with his 1980 album 'Give Me The Night', produced by Quincy Jones, he broke through to a wide audience. The title track, 'Give Me The Night', became a huge hit and remains one of his signature songs. His soulful voice and masterful guitar playing have earned him numerous Grammy Awards.
