Album Review

Sony Music Special Products' The Essence of George Benson is a collection of ten highlights from his recordings for CTI/Columbia. It's far from being a definitive overview of his '70s work, but it isn't a bad sampler at all, which makes it of considerable interest to casual fans and curious listeners, considering its budget price. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
