About this album
The Best Of George Benson distils the guitarist’s late-1970s crossover peak into a focused, highly listenable compilation. By this point Benson had become one of jazz’s most successful mainstream figures, blending virtuoso lines with soul-jazz, smooth jazz and jazz-funk polish without losing the swing and melodic ease that defined his early work. This collection brings together key recordings from that era, including signature pieces such as White Rabbit, Body Talk and California Dreamin’, alongside themes and instrumental favourites that helped broaden his audience well beyond jazz circles. It captures the sound that made Benson a crossover star.
