Benson Strictly Guitar
This Day (but in 2011), George Benson releases “Guitar Man” a mostly instrumental album.
Now, guitar players are great on CD or streaming, but they are even better on video. By the simple fact that you can watch their fingers. (No you cannot on a CD).
So we have compiled a “Benson Strictly Guitar” video playlist featuring a non-singing Benson, for all of you out there who love to watch the guitarists’ fingers.
