Will be released on October 24th, 2006, I can't wait!
I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Great recordings, song selection, and of course, the voice artistry of Jarreau and Benson's guitar exquisitissimo.

    Shack, this is a MUST have for you! (knowing how you feel about Benson)

    welcome! I wonder if Breezin (the first song) lyrics was made up recently. That song from Benson's best selling 1984/1985 album was its signature (along with "This Masquarade") but as I recalled, has no lyrics to it. Nevertheless, tongue and cheek, but it is a great song indeed.

    Worth checking out. However, my favorite Benson by far is White Rabbit. A true classic.

    Although I have not heard the album, I saw Jarreau this past summer live (Awesome) He mentioned that there would be some vocalese on the album (words added to solo sections ala John Hendricks) I think Hendricks appears on the album as well does he not?
