Weekend In London
George Benson
On November 13, Grammy-winning jazz icon George Benson will release 'Weekend In London,' an electrifying new live album capturing his 2019 performance at London's intimate 250-seat Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club. Only a handful of lucky fans were present as the lights went down that magical night in 2019. But now, Kevin Shirley's dynamic production is your invitation to slide onto Ronnie Scott's red velvet banquette, call for a scotch on the rocks and catch the sparks as Benson's honeyed vocal and fluid licks drive the finest live outfit in modern jazz.
The 2019 show that became 'Weekend In London' was another fabled night to go down in the club's folklore. This hard-bitten jazzman might prefer spontaneity to setlists, but this latest live album nods to many of his countless career peaks, whether he's opening with the deathless groove of 1980's US #4 smash "Give Me The Night," revisiting fan favorites like "Love X Love" and "In Your Eyes," or breathing fresh mojo into classic covers like Dave Bartholomew's "I Hear You Knocking" and Donny Hathaway's "The Ghetto."
