George Benson is a talented guitarist, composer and vocalist in modern jazz music. His work always relayed a dedication to his work and the sound he built project after project. His 1980 album titled “Give Me The Night” was produced by Mr. Quincy Jones and together they create a fusion of soul and jazz which takes on the 80’s for a challenge. “Love X Love” is a track which gives both an opportunity to give their best and combine the sound in a soulful manner. The song has the Jones production and arrangement from start to end yet George still stands in front with his vocal and finger play. Perhaps one of the best cuts from the project and one which makes one want to turn down the lights and grab a bottle of wine with that special someone.
I have taken the album version of “Love X Love” and added a few new rhythm elements to give a new foundation for this ReStructure Mix. A new drum track plays out over this love song and the Afro-Cuban percussion adds a new form to it.
