520    Over the course of his fifty-year career, George Benson 
       has performed for hundreds of millions of fans around the 
       world, received ten Grammy Awards, and recorded with some 
       of the most revered musicians of his era. And he has 
       finally decided to tell his story. "Benson: The 
       Autobiography" follows the musician's remarkable rise from
       the ghettos of Pittsburgh to the stages of Dubai, and 
       everywhere in between. His tales of scuffling on the road 
       with jazz legend Brother Jack McDuff, navigating his way 
       through the recording studio with Miles Davis, and 
       emerging as the first true (and truly successful) jazz/
       soul crossover artist will enthrall devotees of both music
       history and pop culture.
