Average White Band & Ben E. King - Benny and Us

Released in March 1977, Benny and Us is a unique collaboration that unites the Scottish funk and soul of the Average White Band with the legendary vocals of Ben E. King. This particular record is a promotional copy, as indicated by the sticker on the front cover. The album is a masterful blend of King’s smooth, classic soul with AWB's signature tight grooves and horn arrangements, making for a sophisticated and endlessly listenable record. It's a testament to the seamless fusion of two distinct musical forces and an essential listen for fans of both artists. This album’s influence can be heard on many tracks, including the AWB song “Get It Up For Love,” which was sampled by artists like DJ Quik on his song "Get Down."
