George Benson – Beyond the Blue Horizon

One of the albums that built George Benson’s reputation as one of the greatest jazz guitarists of all time. Benson assembled some other jazz musicians with extensive experience playing with Miles Davis, the drummer Jack DeJohnette and the most recorded jazz bassist in history, Ron Carter. Organist Clarence Palmer also puts in some great work, but Benson’s guitar playing is often the showcase and he doesn’t disappoint. This version is the 1979 reissue, while the 1971 Beyond the Blue Horizon features a different cover. Recorded at Rudy Van Gelder studios in Englewood Cliffs, NJ.
