On mr benson's beeezin tour ..I had a friend who' was an usher. He let me in the hall. And before you know it. I am helping his band off load equipment from a u-haul box truck. . ronnie foster phil upchurch .havery mason and stanley banks all carrying stuff to stage. And I was 14 years old. I met em all. Coolest memory of any concert of my life. .I was frontrow center. Mr benson' looked right at this young surfer bum white kid who had helped the band set up two hours earlier. And I was in awe. Love thy neighbor. And love thy jazz players too 🙏👍
We went to see them live at a small jazz club in Boston around 1973 after White Rabbit. It was bad weather and tuesday night early show and we were the only ones there. They played us a private concert from ten feet away then George had a drink with us at intermission . Then more people showed up for the second set. But boy was that a gift.
That does sound like the very fine & good nature generosity of George Benson ... such a Gigantic Artist with an even Greater Heart ❤️ as a Human Being ... When 1st met him in my early 20’s at a hospital lobby , while he was waiting to go up to see someone it seemed then , while on my way out I just happen to notice him. It was so surreal for me meeting my No.1 Musical Hero like this . As I approached him very calmly and in a profound manner , in deep awe ... he was just so kindly accommodating, with his generous food nature , as if to allow one of his fan to sit by him and actually interview him in an impromptu conversation for about 45 minutes to an hour . His mild manner prevented me from being so extremely awestruck ... that we had such a very relaxed and calm conversation . And it reached to the point that I had to go. It wasn’t until I reached the subway train station that it fully dawned on me and felt so awe struck then. As I got on that train I was very much overwhelmed in reflection . I ended up calling just about al my friends & family members 🙏🏽🤗 In that close encounter that lasted about a good hour his whole aura spirit as a person seemed to have carried along with me. The sociological experience that left such a reflection & impression on & in the soul affected the way I even played & approached the instrument of choice ... The Guitar 🎸 🙏🏽 They don’t come like that anymore ...
Stunning! Total deStress...better than anti-anxiety meds...my three pussycats lying around me on the deck in the sun...And damn! Even the wind's calmed itself down. Thankyou.
I don't know who's reading these comments today, August 30, 2024 but that bass guitarist Calvin Bryant is great man, on all the songs to listen to him is total awesome Good fortune to wherever he is today I would really like to find him Take care and thanks to all the katz on this album. Came up with Earl and George
70`s,80's,90's just dropped out of college 1975 ( U S F ) univ. of south Florida landed a job in aerospace, after returning home in Tampa after a tough assignment this was the music of choice to unwind to, wow what memories...
I have been listening to Mr. Klugh since I was kid in the late 70's. Noone, and I mean noone can claim his sound. Dare I say I am not to big of George Benson fan, but who does not love the timeless iconic Breezin'.
George is an all time great he has a smooth singing voice coupled by awesome dynamic playing don't know if anyone else can do both so fluently, 10 times grammy winner says it all we may never see another one like him in our lifetime. I won't forget Earl, another grammy winner, great energy and fantastic playing.
George Benson has been such a big part of my life since 1976! I've seen him live several times here in Australia, and I will ALWAYS cherish those moments. And Earl Klugh, you are also a favorite genius of guitar! 👍😄
Envy you as I've missed George Benson in the early 80's when he came to Melb, in the 90's when he played the Hilton Hotel circuit and most recently this year before Bluesfest. Cheers.
Great collaboration between these two virtuosos. Frankly, everyone on stage is tops in their field; all in sync and sounding like a well oiled machine.
Starting this morning with listening to Earl Klughs wonderful „Handmade“-album, I finally crossed this wonderful event with George and Earl at their best. The band is a machine. Thank you for that spirit.🎉It will stay for ever…
I stand in awe of these guys and loving this music is an understatement. It's like standing in a waterfall and not getting wet enough, keep pouring it down.
I totally agree with the watery analogy, it's like gentle raindrops cascading down on you, and soothing away the aches and pain. Great chemistry between these guitar geniuses, love Love you guys! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Omg this is a gift to my ears!!...geniuses,George Benson one of my favorite of all time,magnificent musicians,beautiful songs,Earl,just magnificent.....
Fantastic ! I have loved both these artists since the late 70s. Individually they are terrific. Together they are wonderful. I get great pleasure from their music. May they continue a long long time.
Es muy complaciente escuchar ver este concierto e igualmente vivo en Tokio de la George Benson en esta noche del jueves 6 de mayo 2021 a las, 10 pm sentado en un sofá del apartamento viendo en TV smart 32 dado por un hermano y su cuñada tomando una taza de te con con algunas galletas. Es la música de Benson con si guitarra, eléctrica qué canta ríe llora esas melodías, estilo Jazz con el aire más hermoso ese estilo musical del Soul. Bien acompañado de su conjunto musical y bocal. Así una noche de Mayo de suave frio en Popayan es más, llevadera antes de acostarse. La buena música qué hace Benson es para disfrutarla como se hace si uno encuentra una buena compañia. Con aprecio. Gracias por el video. Ricardo Alegría Zambrano. Popayan Cauca Colombia.
Just be you..something special lives inside you. Be uniquely you as you are. That is all you can be. Oh and practice like 52 hours a day. Don't smash your guitar, donate it if anything.
GEORGE BENSON & EARL! I particularly Enjoyed This 2 finest Guitar/String s GENiUS Combo, ... it's "Most" Super Klassic/ Smooth & KoooL to END. 5⭐ Anytime, AnyDAY.
I love George's solo on Freddie Hubbard's Skyline. In fact I am going listen to it again right now. George also does the best Beyond The Sea ever, a perfect song really.
What a voice...and those sweet, tasty licks! I have the best memories of Livin Inside Your Love - sumnertime with my first real love and what a sumner that was!✌
I'm really groovin' to this George Benson program thing UA-cam's got going with Chet Atkins and another American guitar virtuoso genius George did In Asia. It demonstrates Georges' versitality as well as his virtuosity.😊 It was produced, I believe, to treat folks to the width, length, and scale of his talent and attitude towards music in general!😎😎
I'd booked to see George at the Royal Albert Hall, in London last postponed to this year and now put back to 2022!!! Can't be helped. Saw Earl Klugh in Colardo Spring in 2019. Two very classy and talented gentlemen. Thanks for posting!
Thank you so much for posting this performance. I have loved George and Earl both since the late seventies. They look so comfortable and at ease on stage here. Thank you again xx
This show was broadcast in Japan and I recorded it on VHS videotape and enjoyed it often (it was my favourite). After that, as is often the case, I lent it to a friend and never got it back. But I'm so happy to see this show again after 30 years. thanks to whoever uploaded the video
Thank you so much for posting this. I still play the albums Collaboration and Livin Inside Your Love today they still give me the shivers as much as they did then I have had the great pleasure of seeing George in concert a number of times as he tours Scotland regularly. But sadly I have never seen Earl thats a dream. George and Earl look so comfortable on stage together. once again thank you
Boy, you deserve such an applause for posting the whole thing with such a quality of sound and picture... This is true gold for all Benson fans, music lovers in general and especially for all of us who bought the Collaboration and Living inside your love LPs and enjoyed it so much back then... Please make sure to correct the video title ("Goeoge") since it may prevent some web searches to bring it upfront... Thanks again pal !
Whoa 😲 Two of my fav insane yet always melodic line-runners at the tippy top of their game. Effortless masters & pals on a joy ride like a couple little kids. The mutual admiration and chemistry wow. A matchup made in heaven
Good to see Lando Calrissian enjoying back then on the stage with his band, before he became the admin on Cloud City. Jokes aside, this performance is absolutely great. Thanks a lot for upload it!
Agree! One of the best in all my music collection. Every track on this great album takes me back to when I first purchased this on cassette back in 1987 and would play it on my tape deck back to back with Bob James & David Sanborn's classic " Double Vision" from the previous year. No surprise that the common thread between these 2 excellent albums is the genius bass player/composer/arranger/producer Mr. Marcus Miller.
Como aprendiz de Benson,o acompanho desde anos 60/70 ,nestes mais de 50 anos gostaria muito de um alô e ou conhe_lo pessoalmente,toco diversas músicas dele, ele é gênio e pessoa maravilhosa
Jazz music at it epic. The two legendary jazziest thanks for contributing to your generation. You have written your name in gold and musical history will never forget you.
Benson and Klugh should be the name of a cigar. And their music is a single malt whisky. The rest is chill.

That's a great story man! I always had a fantasy of doing something like that and meeting a band. I'll bet they were really cool guys👍
I got tears. One day George and Earl will be gone but their legacy will never die. I hope Jesus show himself to them before they leave us.
✝️ A fine prayer and Amen.

The golden era of fusion jazz. They no longer make such convincingly beautiful music anymore.
Some serious jamming going on here!
listening pleasure. matters of smooth jazz par excellence.
Wow..just wow! ❤️❤️❤️
Collaboration, by George Benson and Earl Klugh, from album of the same name. One of the best CD's I have ever owned, every song was brilliant.
I did not realize it was a full concert.
Agree! One of the best in all my music collection.

Fantastic , magnificent George Benson , Earl Klugh and the rest of band beautifully orchestrated. I wish I was there jamming with them
How about that. Whenever they collaborate they sound so very distinct from each other yet very complimentary.
Great show!!!!!
What a duet great and awesome guitarists together! Wow, simply bravo 👏👏👏👏👏
This duo let their guitars sing for them...the best guitar player for me😊
I grew with this stuff. Thanks!
