The ultimate summer classic! George Benson’s Breezin’, released in 1976, marked the beginning of his most commercially successful period. This was his first album after moving to Warner Bros., produced by Tommy LiPuma, engineered by Al Schmitt, with orchestral arrangements by Claus Ogerman—a truly unbeatable lineup. The session musicians were also top-notch, featuring Ronnie Foster, Harvey Mason, Ralph MacDonald, Phil Upchurch, and more. From the now quintessential title track (originally by Bobby Womack and Gábor Szabó) to the album’s only vocal performance by Benson himself—Leon Russell’s This Masquerade, which became a major hit on both the Billboard Hot 100 and R&B charts—and a gorgeous cover of José Feliciano’s Affirmation, the record delivers six flawless tracks. A true essential—every household should own a copy!
