George Benson is simply one of the greatest guitarists in jazz history, but he is also an amazingly versatile musician, and that frustrates to no end critics who would paint him into a narrow bop box. He can play in just about any style -- from swing to bop to R&B to pop -- with supreme taste, a beautiful rounded tone, terrific speed, a marvelous sense of logic in building ...more

Love
"Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. . . . It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more."


C'mon people, now
smile on your brother,
ev'ry-body get together,
try to love one another right now.

We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't
just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on
by itself. You've got to keep on watering it. You've got to really look after
it and nurture it"


I do my thing, and you do your thing. I am not tin this world to live up to your expectations, and you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.

I LOVE YOU......

'The Jody'
morning sun rise,
sky lit pale blue,
be grateful,
you're blessed,
don't let time pass through you,

cuz from her i learned patience
she let myself see
a strength deep inside her
that set myslf free

sun beams to the west,
thoughts silent at rest,
make peace with your loved ones
let your heart do the rest,

she didnt mean to be so mean
when she let myself see
a pain deep inside her
i set myself free

she set myself free

mans evil will...

forever luvs unfullfill...
tormented and tired
heart freeezes still....
harcore you're scared...
abandon at will...
bury the past...
n keep lyfe a thrill
