The original album features six tracks that define the "smooth jazz" era: George Benson- Breezin Full Album Zip

"Breezin'" has left an enduring impact on jazz and popular music. The album's crossover appeal helped bridge the gap between jazz and R&B, influencing a generation of musicians to come. Benson's mastery of the guitar and his vocal prowess have inspired countless artists, from Eric Clapton to John Mayer.

There have been several high-quality 180g vinyl reissues that capture the original warmth of the recording sessions at Capitol Records.

Written by legendary flautist Herbie Mann (under his pseudonym José Feliciano’s songwriter credit). This track is pure joy. Phil Upchurch’s rhythm guitar, Ronnie Foster’s electric piano, and Benson’s melodic lines create a tapestry of sunshine. It is a song that feels like a vacation.

At the 19th Annual Grammy Awards (held in 1977 for recordings from 1976), "Breezin’" dominated the ceremony. The album won:

Before 1976, George Benson was primarily known as a formidable bebop guitarist in the vein of Wes Montgomery. Breezin’ changed everything. Produced by Tommy LiPuma and released on Warner Bros. Records, the album became one of the best-selling jazz albums of all time.

: At the 19th Annual Grammy Awards, the album won Best Pop Instrumental Performance , while its standout track, "This Masquerade," took home Record of the Year . Tracklist & Key Highlights The album's crossover appeal helped bridge the gap

Counterintuitively, Breezin’ is not an instrumental album. Five of its six tracks feature Benson’s voice—a supple, unaffected tenor that borrows from Stevie Wonder and Donny Hathaway but never oversings. “This Masquerade,” written by Leon Russell and previously a modest hit for Helen Reddy, became Benson’s signature. His reading transforms the song’s anxious loneliness into something more resigned and beautiful: a guitar-harmonized vocal at the bridge, a wordless scat that dissolves into strings. The production—close-miked, dry, intimate—was radical for mid-70s pop. No reverb-drenched bombast, just breath and fretboard.

Whether you’re looking for the ultimate chill-out session or a masterclass in jazz-funk guitar, this is a "no-skip" record from start to finish. Album Highlights & Tracklist
