│ Personnel: George Benson (vocals, guitar); Jorge Dalto ││
│ (acoustic & electric pianos, Clavinet); Ronnie Foster ││
│ (electric piano, Minimoog synthesizer); Phil Upchurch ││
│ (guitar, bass); Stanley Banks (bass); Harvey Mason (drums); ││
│ Ralph MacDonald (percussion). Producer: Tommy LiPuma. ││
│ Reissue producers: David McLees, Patrick Milligan. Recorded ││
│ at Capitol Studios, Hollywood, California from January 6-8, ││
│ 1976. Includes liner notes by Al Young and A. Scott ││
│ Galloway. Digitally remastered by Bill Inglot. Benson earned ││
│ his reputation as a superior jazz guitarist through his ││
│ partnership with soul/jazz organist Brother Jack McDuff. ││
│ Several solo albums for the CTI label ensued before a switch ││
│ to the giant Warner Brothers resulted in extraordinary chart ││
│ success with this release. Benson's remake of the title ││
│ track, originally a hit for fellow guitarist Gabor Szabo, ││
│ set the tone for the entire set wherein mellifluous funk ││
│ underscores the artist's sweet voice and soft-touch ││
│ technique. Like Nat 'King' Cole before him, Benson left jazz ││
│ to court a wider audience and with Breezin' he did so with ││
│ considerable aplomb. ││
