How smitten I became with the sounds of Mr. My practice was as many singers profess today, that of following the sounds of artists I truly admired. During these years, unbeknownst to my mother and rest of my family, I was honing my craft of singing. One of the brothers actually travelled around the world with a very well-known band for quite a number of years. There was a significant amount of talent, as some of the brothers in the family played various instruments and sang.

So let me take you back a little… well ok, maybe more than a little, to my high school days. By the way, these blogs all reflect my personal opinions and experiences that move me to speak about the artists I feature so fondly, in these posts. So for this article, I would like to feature the incomparable George Benson. As promised in one of my previous blogs, I will be featuring some of the most prolific balladeers, whose songs I cover in my Ballads studio shows.
