Scat singing George Benson often performed other people's songs in other people's voices. His vocal on Leon Russell's "This Masquerade" for example is a Stevie Wonder impression. Although "Give Me The Night" isn't a cover, George is clearly doing his best Lionel Richie here. And is that a touch of Michael Jackson creeping into "20/20"?

Benson is at his best with instrumentals, particularly "Being With You," a song that showcases his abilities. Even when playing however, George is occasionally imitating. The "Breezin'" guitar sounds very much like Wes Montgomery, while "On Broadway" is reminiscent of the guitarwork from "Shaft."

Maybe this should be called THE GREATEST IMITATIONS OF ALL. (3½ stars)
