I really like Eric Clapton but I think George Benson is better, he plays more melodical. Clapton can play in only two major pentatonic positions so his liks aren't very different and after 30 years I think it becomes quite boring to play always the same.

Benson killed it on that guitar. BB King has even acknowledged Benson's magnificent guitar chops on BB's album titled "King Biscuit Flower Hour Presents B. B. King Live!"

It's so nice to see these 3 on stage!

Genius... one is a blues-rocker star, the ohter is a jazz man, maybe this will be the reason, for the two different styles, and the other man in the scene is one of the fathers of the electric guitar sound, I think is great heard 3 legends playin together.

@TheBlues088 Sorry not better, they are both great, let say more versatile.

@zambonitron Listen to or watch the video of " Old Love " from 24 Nights, I've been to quite a few of Clapton's concerts and in my opinion, he's at his best here. As to who won what, these guys were there for BB and all that matters is the music. "This Masqurade" written by Leon Russell, performed by Geroge Benson on his " Breezin " LP just blew me away, without a doubt the best cover of that song I've ever heard,and for as good as Clapton is , I don't think he could touch it.

@TheBlues088 Eric clapton is a bluesman and George Benson is a jazzman a style is a bit diferent . They are very well in theres styles :)

@TheBlues088 Of course Benson is technically better, he's primarily a jazz guitarist. Jazz is where musicians go when they've already mastered everything else. It's not important who's "better", the blues are about soul and emotion, and they've all got it. Technically, BB King can barely play, he doesn't even know any chords (this is a fact), but his feeling is what makes it what it is.

Why do people try to compare music legends on who's better? All 3 of these men are musical geniuses with obviously a ton of respect for each other. To many variables & personal preferences to determine who's the best. Why not just watch & enjoy a great moment in history?
