BENSON GEORGE/WHITE RABBIT

Descripción

GEORGE BENSON SERVES UP AN ECLECTIC STEW OF MUSICAL STYLES A FANTASTIC BLEND OF PSYCHEDELICA JAZZ AND LATIN STUFF. THE ALBUM BEGINS WITH A ROUSING VERSION OF JEFFERSON AIRPLANES HIPPIE ANTHEM WHITE RABBIT. ANOTHER HIGHLIGHT IS AN ENERGETIC RENDERING OF BRAZILIAN CLASSICAL COMPOSER HEITOR VILLA-LOBOS LITTLE TRAIN. BUT MAYBE THE BEST SONGS ON THE ALBUM ARE SAVED UNTIL LAST. HERE GEORGE BENSON TURNS IN A BLISTERING OVER SEVEN MINUTES RENDITION OF THE MAMAS PAPAS CALIFORNIA DREAMING WHICH IS FOR SURE A KILLER VERSION. FINALLY THIS BRILLIANT ALBUM ENDS WITH EL MAR A BENSON-COMPOSED SPANISH-TINGED EPIC THAT FEATURES A BLOSSOMING 17 YEARS YOUNG EARL KLUGH ON ACOUSTIC GUITAR.
