THE OPENING OF GB IN THE INTRO, SAID IT ALL I AM GREATEST GUITARIST!!!

the problem is it seems you are part of the anti Benson crowd who are angry about his crossing over from pure jazz to jazz rock/funk. Obviously maybe you guys have never listened to him really play those ole jazz licks off Benson Burner, White Rabbit, Good King Bad etc. He admired and near-worshipped Wes Montgomery - so is it a bad thing copying your hero's style? You are criticising GB purely for "crossing over" without really giving the genius credit for his jazz nous. I think the issue is that there is only one GB - hardly anyone can reproduce his knowledge and talent and dexterity. I don't class GB - though my jazz guitar hero - as the standout great. But one of the greatest. Joe Pass, Charles Christian, Wes Montgomery, Kenny Burrell, Barney Kessel, Jim Hall, Larry Carlton, Eric Gale, Earl Klugh etc. Right up there. I won't make comparisons. But Benson's ability can't be matched. Maybe you should listen closer - to his earlier re cordings. Not right to draw willy-nilly assumptions.

21:34 R A R E to be able to c JHS in h7s act 4 the 1st x evvuhhh ... Quit the biz in 80, went to realty rest of his life, exited 97. Has 36 albums + sessions. 1 of the B3 pioneers. Holy moly despite low res. THE STINGER w Floyd Smith, 66 pers. fav.

Спасибо тебе Джорж...ты лучший.

Beyond Words

The good taste of the audience have me amazed. A great show indeed.

Hella fast on highway.

Man what a groove and he makes it look so easy

Simply the greatest guitarist in the world 🙏

Lenda simplesmente! Rio de janeiro

Now this is the way we use to jam in the nightclubs back in the day. The music now is trash. Where can you go these days to hear and see black musicians getting down like this? Those who control the industry do not want this.

Great Feeling !

I dont know if thats Jorge Dalto on piano but as a guitar player/bassist this album and Jorge is what made me learn keys. "Down here on the ground" and "Affirmation" both have great solos by him.

insane!!!

Do you have the full concert?? Did he perform “Being with you”??

George ..genius.and quincey..da pervert scum

Was there ever a man with more soul than George Benson, the greatest 🎸

James Harper...You are the Man! Thank you SO MUCH!

They all of them..... Genius. I love this

That synth solo was bananas…..

Simply magnificent!

Wonderful!!!! And I might be wrong, but Mr. Phil Upchurch looks like he's playing a Les Paul Signature Sunburst with humbuckers......a rare guitar indeed....

A genius playing a masterpiece.

James, I was in High school at this time, I was there! Seattle Paramount Northwest, CTI Spectacular, three years in a row. All great shows, thanks for putting this out here!

Way to get down man!!!

GB at his best!

George cutting heads again! 🎸🔥🔥🔥

Such a great great tune by Benson. And to have Phil Upchurch (who wrote this) is a double treat!!!

great, thanks for sharing! 🙏👍

With Jorge Dalto

Awesome footage of pre-Warner. Brothers Benson, my inspiration for playing guitar. Oddly enough, it’s seeing Ron Carter playing a Fender Jazz bass that’s really tripping out. This is one of the times I’ve seen extended footage of him playing electric bass. And then there’s pimped-out Grover😅. As Kool Moe Dee once asked, “How cool can one black man be?”

Musica de verdad

The greatest guitar player IMHO !!

Still got this beast?

Incomparável Inimitável Genial Único Criador deu pra ele um dom de exclusividade Sou apreciador de jazz Conheço inúmeros e excelentes guitarristas, mas GB é "The Man" Queria muito poder ter visto ele ao vivo..... Tenho vários lps Desde 1984 Quando conheci e fiquei maravilhado com a habilidade técnica e fluidez, sem contar o estilo, que fora imitado por vários, graças a Deus!!!

Love so much George! Stanley Banks, Jorge Dalto, Ronnie Foster etc....great!!

pure magic man

MARVELOUS GEORGE BENSON 👌👏👏👏👏👏

Maravilloso tema , del increíble GEORGE BENSON , que interpretación !!!

Saw him play at Keysone Korner in the 70’s one of the finest guitar players…….ever!

The Man!

Beautifull!

At least, by the end, the cameraman finally figured out "Oh yeah, this singer knows how to play the guitar."

pure magic defiantely...real music..

wow!! where did this come from? thank-you Mr. Harper for posting this gem. George Benson is my all time fav. guitar player, I can't get enough of his amazing playing. Going to watch this concert over and over again!!! Loved it!!!

Summertime. We are lucky, extremely lucky to have a great guitarist like GB with us in this generation. The last of the really great jazz guitar virtuosos. There'll never ever be another GB💜

What a great performance of This Masquerade - many thanks for sharing 😀🎸

Mio preferito di sempre
