As great as George Benson is at playing jazz guitar he is also, I think, a very good vocalist. In 1984 an album called 20/20 was produced featuring George Benson singing on every track of the album, the only album to date of his in which there's no instrumental only song.

Here's the title track from that 1984 album, one in my CD collection, called "20/20":

In 1986 another great George Benson album was released called ...While The City Sleeps, also in my CD collection. Here's "Kisses In The Moonlight", from that album:

I recently came across this song by accident, which I had forgotten about for many years. It is quickly becoming a favorite once again...

I've always been a fan of Hiroshima, Josh. I have several of their CDs:

Go(1987)
East(1989)
Providence(1992)

I also have a "Best Of Hiroshima" CD but I'm not sure of its release year.

I've always been a Jeff Lorber fan. This song, with Karyn White on vocals, was always playing in clubs back in '86:
