Body Talk

George Benson s Body Talk climbed the Billboard jazz chart to #10 in 1973, an early indication of Benson s successful move into soulful pop. With an eye and ear on what was happening on the soul charts James Brown in particular Benson made a decided swerve toward R&B on this release ... It should come as no surprise by now that this formidable guitarist has no problem handling any kind of groove ... Earl Klugh has a few tasty moments on his own, and there are some reconnaissance flights back to the jazz side of George, which he handles with his usual confident aplomb. (All Music Guide). This release includes an alternate take of the title track.
