Wea2 George Benson Livin Inside Your Love Product Type Compact Disc Jazz Music Perform Domestic Review

Track Title. 1 Livin' Inside Your Love. 2 Hey Girl. 3 Nassau Day. 4 Soulful Strut. 5 Prelude To Fall. 6 A Change Is Gonna Come. 7 Love Ballad. 8 You're Never Too Far From Me. 9 Love Is A Hurtin' Thing. 10 Welcome To My World. 11 Before You Go. 12 Unchained Melody. The success of Weekend in L.A. no doubt prompted producer Tommy LiPuma and Warner Bros. to give George Benson another double album (now on one CD) -- and this, like its three Warner predecessors, also went Top Ten. It is also, alas, slicker, more romantic in mood, and more bound by perceptions of formula than the others, fussed over in three different studios in earnest search of another hit single (the dance-tempo cover of L.T.D.'s "Love Ballad"). Most of the touring band, including Ronnie Foster, Ralph MacDonald and Phil Upchurch, is back, and Claus Ogerman's soft symphonic touch provides most of the backdrops, with Mike Mainieri supplying the orchestra on three tracks. Even at this point, the great guitarist is still given much room to burn -- the balance between instrumentals and vocals remains close -- and Benson comes up with some tasty stuff when the rhythm section pushes him on "Nassau Day" and "You're Never Too Far from Me." Ultimately there is just enough jazz content amid the velvet soul to keep guitar buffs interested. ~ Richard S. Ginell, All Music Guide. Read more...
