Over the span of his illustrious five-decade career, George Benson
has sold millions of records, performed for hundreds of millions of
fans, and cut some of the most beloved jazz and soul tunes in music
history. But the guitarist/vocalist is much more than "This
Masquerade," "On Broadway," "Turn Your Love Around," and "Give Me
the Night." Benson is a flat-out inspiration, a multitalented
artist who survived an impoverished childhood and moulded himself
into the first true- and truly successful- jazz/soul crossover
artist. And now, on the heels of receiving the prestigious NEW Jazz
Masters award, George has finally decided to tell his story. And
what a story it is. Benson: The Autobiography follows George's
remarkable rise from the ghettos of Pittsburgh to the stages of
South Africa, and everywhere in between. George Benson is an
unparalleled storyteller, and his tales of scuffling on the Chitlin
Circuit with jazz legend Brother Jack McDuff, navigating his way
through the recording studio with Miles Davis, and performing with
the likes of Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Stevie Wonder, Aretha
Franklin, B.B. King, Quincy Jones, Benny Goodman, Rod Stewart,
Chaka Khan, Count Basie, and Lou Rawls will enthrall devotees of
both music history and pop culture.A treat for serious listeners,
hardcore guitar aficionados, and casual music followers alike,
George's long-awaited book allows readers to meet the man who is
one of the most beloved, prolific, and bestselling musicians of his
or any other era.

Bloomfield is number one. Not only did he play over the top well
and I mean amazingly well but he also played what I call 'real'
guitar. If you've ever heard Mike Bloomfield, then you know what
I'm talking about. It just came from his heart. I never got a
chance to see him because he died at an early age, but he was a big
influence on me as to the way I learned to bend strings and get
everything I could out of a note. One of the best players ever."
