Garswood Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Hi al, went to a modern soul do few weeks back and heard a george benson track, sounds a bit like brightest star by stevie wonder, really uplifting funky number late 70's ,early 80's, but just cannot recall the title or remember the tune(until i hear it)...not much to go on i know but anybody got any suggestions, i dont think it was one of his hits, maybe an album track only, anyway any help would be appreciated...atb phil
Rick Woollons Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 The only one that comes to mind is "When love comes calling" but dont think it sounds like another Star

Garswood Posted December 7, 2011 Author Posted December 7, 2011 thanks so much for replies, not any of the ones mentioned so far, if anybody went to vybe at leyland hotel, it was the track played after the two P.A,,s finished in the soul room,...phil
Geeselad Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 its not any of the things he did with MAW was it, 'you can do it baby' perhaps? Yeah i know its 9ts, but live sounding production. and I know it obvious but 'on broadway' or 'supership'?

Theresa Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 I would have said Love Ballad as well. Adam's been playing it out recently. Tune-o-rama
Garswood Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 yee ha, yup its love ballad, couldn't for the life of me think what it was, thanks theresa and steveh73 and everyone who replied, being doing my head in thinking what it was, a real nice tune, may have mislead on the "another star" thing, all i could think of to be honest, but i never new what great stuff GB has put out trawling through you tube ect, fab stuff, thanks...phil

Dave Pinch Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 this was on the nuyorcan soul cd a few years ago along with roy ayers sweet tears. also came out on a double lp dave
MrsWoodsrules Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 this was on the nuyorcan soul cd a few years ago along with roy ayers sweet tears. also came out on a double lp dave Loved that Masters At Work cd, good tracks from India & Jocelyn Brown too, but the George Benson track is a killer, takes about 5 mins to get going, superb in high definition audio, my favourite George Benson track of all time has to be World is a Ghetto on In Flight, just too good that track. Aid.
