[@Asagtr]

Benson is one of the greatest musicians to ever pickup the guitar....a Legend.

[@bbsoni4814]

really is

[@lorenzopetrocca]

yes

[@dextershumba7262]

Its humbling to be able to experience this.

[@guitarttimman]

Him and Larry Carlton

[@troysanders7775]

@@guitarttimmanDo believe that Larry Carlton could have improvised at the tempo they were playing?

[@jazzyla9]

All of these guys a known great musicians. that bass player is a monster with such diversity!!!!!!!!!

Stanley Banks great player, funky as hell.

[@floridaruttles3984]

There's about 250 years of musical experience on that stage. Clark Terry & James Moody,....DAMN !

[@SanMaiero]

The greates BENSON on his own universe

[@thebridgeinstitute1]

Stanley Banks on the bass!

[@Goldenfeather77]

Love a bit of jazz from George Benson this cold, rainy 🌄 morning

[@mmmsss4544]

Clark Terry, James Moody and George Benson. What a lineup !!!!

[@alanrodrigues2616]

Surprises me how many people don't realise he is a jazz guitarist..and phenomenal at that. Great technique

[@Faz99Master]

Surprising how many people are brain dead! 😅

[@MerrittJeff1970]

This whole thing is crazy beautiful,,, off the charts!! Every player is on fire... Im shocked this hasn't bveen recognized as one of the greatest Jazz accomplishments of all time.

[@1mespud]

That STANLEY BANKS is one wicked, confident, and diabolical bass player if any..

[@veeseee128]

Who else noticing George's Bass player Stanley Banks dancing while playing, bopping that head side to side? That cat is always having a good time! 9:03

[@ramazkurashvili2113]

Дж. Бенсон супер музикант , я его слушаю с 1978 года , а 2005 году присуствовал на его концерте в Тбилиси и лично познакомился с ним .

[@asilbar2]

George Benson a Hall of Fame guitarist !!!!!

[@karun8236]

lmao the bass playa is in the zone

[@TheFossie12]

- first heard white rabbit lying on a lux bed in the cologne hotel just across from the cathedral in 1977 first time I’d ever heard fm radio. Lil boy transported into the ancient modern world of Europe. Unforgettable thnx GB.....

[@boreed5734]

Man!!! Benson is my all time favorite followed by Joe Pass then Wes Montgomery..what a lineup of super guitarist. Benson seems to know what to play seemlessly no matter what the speed or style...What a talent he is, these current guys playing now are great too but they all have to reconize George's remarkable talent and contribution to the jazz world. He's copied but never matched, thank you George for sharing your spectacular gift.

[@zobizoba1241]

Yes ! Where do people like Mango Belo and Pepe Rodriguez stand on your scale ? And Zizi Beluga ? Rating Benson, Pass and Wes. You've got balls and zero brain buddy

[@foxybrown2]

Who are these people you are talking about i tried to pull them up on you tube and I got cooking chefs not music.

[@boreed5734]

@@foxybrown2 ...thank u he don't know what he's taking about everybody George is the man thanks 0 brains guy pull up any other of George's KZbin videos they not hard to find.

[@F20ization]

Bo Reed ,yeah you are right.What do you think about tucker andress,and tom emmanuel?

[@jasonpfinch]

Are you nuts. Wes is the destroyer of all human beings when it comes to the guitar and number two is without doubt Grant Green. GB can start contending for third.

[@19Lqueen17]

That bassist is so epic Lol

[@AlfristonTV]

I'm in awe. I'm half Finnish and a jazz fan since 1978 & this is the first time I'm seeing this. Really impressive. Similar to the Jazz Crusaders (sic) at Montreux - similar vintage. Makes you realise these days, we are so shallow.

[@floridaruttles3984]

........ you mean Rap doesn't measure up to this stuff ?!?! Tee-hee-hee !

[@DJAGOJazz]

This is JUST AWESOME ! George Benson and all

[@lorenzopetrocca]

yes!

[@guitarttimman]

That's some awesome horn players too. Wow!

[@robertkscorpio3680]

Agreed...love his R&B feel too...absolutely one of the greatest Guitarists to ever Play....virtuoso with emotions and feeling and nearly limitless ability...

[@jocapamusician]

Wow the kinda music i love.This is what i lke.Undescretible,fantastic,owesome,divine ...

[@Pedro83214]

George Benson could pick up every tune and it would sound great, a master among other masters!!!

[@candidx7057]

Wow! I'd never heard GB like that before. The whole band, so fluid and yet tight. Thanks for positing this.

[@johnybrouk6088]

So god damn gooood. I thank to god, Mr. George was born!

[@alexleverty7329]

Crazy showcase of talent right here

[@munkienl1]

With the ever underrated Clark Terry! One of the greats of jazz trumpet.

[@Faz99Master]

Underrated??

[@garys1100]

Here from George's interview with Rick Beato and the solo for this song appearing in Downbeat and how Freddie Hubbard told George he couldn't play the solo!

[@uncleremus5046]

Back when he still played guitar like Bad Benson!

Just sick! TY so much for posting.

A ne pas perdre de vue que Stanley Banks, mène une basse souterraine décisive ! Il faut dresser l'oreille avec les tripes, quoi ! Bravo !!!

[@nesptahsoitis2607]

Beautiful Elegance.....w9w

[@sunaJH]

I was surprised Benson didn't grandstand the other members, but he was professional and a gentleman

[@rodrickdubose659]

sun Tao naw he wouldn't have done that to Moody and Terry...but he grandstanded Carlos Santana on a KZbin vid I watched. Benson seems to approach guitar like a pro boxer...he tends to outbox the competition, and he def has the weapons to achieve victory.

[@wehaveasituation]

magnificent

[@davidferrara1105]

RIP Clark

[@veeseee128]

How many people get to play with a guitar that's named after them? Not many. LOL Go George!!

[@JFK1180]

I love Benson but the BASSPLAYER here is just staggering! Damn that's some tasty bassplaying

[@blakkmagikk360]

6:21 that’s the drummer from the movie “Mo’ Better Blues” classic movie

Oh my goodness...this is live music WOW!!!...just look at the legends on stage...let's not forget Jeff Tain Watts on the skins...is that man in the pocket, or what? Never seen this before, but you can bet it won't be my last viewing!!!!!!!!! Thanx.

Those lucky MF's in the audience got to see two titans, George Benson and Patrice Rushen (probably without even knowing her extreme talents) in the same festival.
