Benson, George - Walking To New Orleans

NEW VINYL LP ON PROVOGUE 2019

180 GRAM VINYL

'Walking to New Orleans' is Benson's first recording since 2013’s 'Inspiration: A Tribute to Nat King Cole.' But where Benson embellished Cole's cool tunes with lush orchestral arrangements, ‘Walking' found Benson hunkering down in Ocean Way Studios on Music Row with a quartet of first-call Nashville cats: drummer and music director Greg Morrow, guitarist Rob McNelley, pianist Kevin McKendree, and bassist Alison Prestwood. Producer Kevin "The Caveman" Shirley (Journey, John Hiatt, Iron Maiden) was at the controls.'Walking to New Orleans' is Benson's first recording since 2013’s 'Inspiration: A Tribute to Nat King Cole.'
