The George Benson Sessions: The Making of Songs And Stories: Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight

NEA Jazz Master and 10X Grammy-winning legendary musician George Benson will release his new album on August 25th entitled Songs and Stories. The album is a collection of tunes penned by some of the most prolific and enduring songwriters of the last half-century. Some were written specifically for this new recording, such as Bill Withers (who came out of retirement to write A Telephone Call Away for George), Rod Tempertons Family Reunion and Lamont Doziers Living in High Definition; while others, including James Taylors Dont Let Me Be Lonely Tonight, Donny Hathaways Someday Well All Be Free and Tony Joe Whites Rainy Night in Georgia were hand-picked by Benson for their ability to convey simple but universal truths about the human experience.

This is my favorite in the cd. Because you made sound like it was your own song. It had a different feeling, but at the same you din't shadow Mr. Taylor. Not every one can do that. You did it before with "Affirmation" from "Breezin' " Jose Feliciano song.

Great performance,George, in this song the hue of your voice is the best ever and after the guitar solo,one can only think this is a song of yours. Appreciate
