Producer Creed Taylor showed good judgement when he teamed Benson up with a small yet supremely talented group of musicians: Jack De Johnette on the drums takes Ron Carter’s bass and Clarence Palmer’s organ on a superb ride. Carter and Benson had met one another briefly during a Miles Davis recording session, but there the drummer was Tony Williams. Here, with Jack DeJohnette participating, the numbers on this LP gain real soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut the lyrical side doesn’t come too short either: “Ode To A Kudu” demonstrates this particular attribute of Benson’s to perfection. And “Somewhere To The East” proves that he isn’t afraid to experiment. All in all, this is a top album from George Benson’s long and commercially successful career.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e180 gram LP w\/ Standard Sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eRecording: February 1971 at Van Gelder Studios, Englewood Cliffs, NJ (\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eUSA\u003c\/span\u003e), by Rudy Van Gelder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e CTI 6009 -Artist-George Benson\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 8\/28\/19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: LP Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"George Benson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42504366784593,"sku":"7PYOSQ-EF6K-F8","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/george-benson-beyond-the-blue-horizon_Dh1oL.jpg?v=1750017237","url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/products\/george-benson-beyond-the-blue-horizon-vinyl","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
