George Benson Solo Transcription on Poinciana

George Benson Solo transcription on "Poinciana" is another brilliant example of how the Iconic master improvises with impeccable taste over the Afro-Cuban Latin Jazz style of AFRO. From the fantastic Jorge Dalto and Super Friends record "Rendez-Vous," George locks with the rhythm section and displays his signature lines, sweeps, and bluesy nature.....
"Only George can do George".........

The line at 0:56 lmao, crazy!

Absolutely!! And, when you think about how he sets up the line with the Lydian sound and then contrasts it with that crazy sweep…. It’s amazing….. George shows us his genius here in so many ways.

What album did George do this on??

[@contemporarylatinjazzguitar]

Hello! George recorded “Poinciana” and two other tracks as a sideman guest appearance on the incredible Jorge Dalto and Super Friends record “Rendez-vous” 1983 East World Japan. George plays on two more tracks here “My Latin Brother” and “Hotel Du Globe.” Interesting enough Barry Finnerty and Ted Pearlman also appear on the records other tracks too. The record is rare but you can find it in its entirety on KZbin too. Here’s a link to discogs for more information: www.discogs.com/release/2644113-Jorge-Dalto-Super-Friends-Rendez-Vous Thanks for your support and remember to subscribe….🙏🏽🙏🏽🎸🎸 More incredible solos to come😉😉

Bet schofield..Gamable..Vai..Pat M all the rest have to shutup and recognize

[@contemporarylatinjazzguitar]

They all do🙏🏽 George is revered🙏🏽🙏🏽 And, there is even a famous video around where Scofield talks about trying to learn George’s right hand technique. They all are heavily influenced and do indeed have similarities with George…. As the saying goes: George can only do George…. One of Our Last living true Jazz guitar legend after Kenny Burrell…..
