Benson is so gracious, he just loves to play anytime anywhere. Listen to Benson CD's he's done many many solos that would spin Darden's head. Benson is just an super amazing player and have an extensive playing background with many music icons. Yet he's such a likeable engaging person his accomplishments speaks for itself.
THE PRINCE IS SCHOOLED BY THE KING...THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT! IWAS WITH DARELL DARDEN LAST WEEKEND AND HE WAS GREAT AS ALWAYS...THIS IS A CLASSIC MOMENT...GEORGE BENSON HANDS IT TO THE NEXT JAZZ GREAT! WES MUST BE SMILING IN HEAVEN!!!!
I wish I was good enough to get a lesson from George Benson. I mean, to be able to sit in front of the man and let him hip you to whatever he was diggin' on at the time. Just to be able to listen to him talk music. All I can say is WOW!
I didn't hear any ego playing from Daryl at all. He just slipped in a nice substitution that got GB's attention in a pleasant way. I spent a solid week doing this same type of hanging playing learning with GB in the early 70's it was glorious. cliff in tokyo
The Boss is schooling the the young prince but does anyone know who the Boss was referring to when he was talking about his musical abilities are not chords but harmony at the very end!?🤔
Sir....You're entitled to your opinion, but I respectfully submit that you are misinformed....I was also on the rooftop that day, playing and listening. I know both Daryl and George personally and very well, and both are the kindest, most selfless individuals I have ever known, I assure you that Daryl is the antithesis of egotistical.... he treasures every one of those butt-kickings George dishes out, as do I......
Whenever I see George playing in a casual setting these days, he always plays with his thumb instead of a pick. Does anybody know why this is? Is this a style he favors now or does he just not have a pick on him?
That's right, and if Darden had not made a little mistake we would have been able to listen "on green dolphin street" in full, haha !! No matter, GB is amazing as always.. It's a pity that he does not record albums "purely" jazz as it lately...
remijazz George says “I like them chords you using!” and when he threw in that altered chord or whatever it was, GB’s eyes lit up like he never heard it before, it was wrong but it was a good wrong or he would’ve never made that face 🤣
Daryl Darden is just a wonderfully kind man, fantastic musician and a pleasure to be around.... George Benson was hanging with "good" folk.
All these people around him have no idea that they are in the presence of a living legend.
Some knew... and were respectful. Except for the one drunk lady

I would probably s*** on myself if I was there..... the people in the background have no idea the presence of greatness they are in....

Wes Montgomery style. It makes it easier to play basslines simultaneously and keep in time.
That's right, and if Darden had not made a little mistake we would have been able to listen "on green dolphin street" in full, haha !!

I don't get it. Daryl knows all that shit already.
