    SOUL JAM BROOK BENTON: THE BEST OF BROOK BENTON - 30 ORIGINAL ALL-TIME CLASSICS 6-panel digipak – inside booklet - vintage memorabilia and up-to-date liner notes A consummate singer, Brook Benton was the early soul era's smoothest crooner, combining his pop instincts with a storyteller's knack. Beginning in the late '50s, he racked up an astounding string of hits on both pop and R&B charts and seemed to do so effortlessly. This CD includes a selection of Benton's most essential tracks from the peak of his career. This is a good starting point to explore Brook Benton's legendary discography. A versatile and splendid vocalist, as well as a talented songwriter, here he proves that great singing is great singing, no matter what the genre. BROOK BENTON, lead vocals, plus: Dinah Washington (vocal duets with Benton on tracks 10 & 30), King Curtis (saxophone on track 9), among others. Orchestras conducted and arranged by Belford Hendricks, Billy Mure, Stan Applebaum, and Ray Ellis. Recorded in New York City and Nashville, USA.
