So, this performance by George Benson from '86, well, it really captures him at a unique point in his career. The atmosphere is electric, and you can feel the Montreux vibe in the air. He plays 18 tracks, a mix of his hits and deeper cuts, and you really get a sense of his jazz roots shining through, even as he leans into that smooth R&B style. The pacing feels just right, flowing from one song to the next without a hitch. You can see the passion in his guitar work, a rawness that might surprise some who only know his later radio hits. It’s all about that interplay with the audience, the way he draws you in. It’s distinctive for sure, capturing that live essence.
