Artist: Benton, Brook
Label: Jasmine
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 604988078428
Genre: Oldies
This collection follows on from the two previous best selling volumes from Jasmine, (JASCD687 & JASCD744). Presented this time is kind of a prequel, which as the title suggests, focuses on his early years which show the breadth and scope of his talent, both as a songwriter and balladeer in gospel and doo wop groups. Includes his very first chart single 'A Million Miles from Nowhere' and plenty of rare and collectable material including demo sessions that he recorded during his rise to fame. This is the first time this material has been released in one package. There really is no denying the smooth, persuasive, gospel-based crooning that Brook Benton delivers as he melts the hearts of anyone who is lucky enough to listen. Compiled by Opal Nations who also wrote the fully detailed liner notes.
