I like [George] Benson because I just like it. I like that kind of style. I don't like the broken up kind of style. I don't like where you play for 16 bars and then break it up into what somebody's version of what birds twittering sounds like, or what the sound of the city is, or what New York sounds like.

Van Morrison

George Benson conquered many different genres, from pop ballads to R&B to jazz.

Little Louie Vega

I thought 'Benson' was going to be more of an ensemble show. But it was called 'Benson' for a reason.

Didi Conn

I just loved working with George Benson, whom I very much enjoy musically and as a person.

Aretha Franklin

The purity of sound that Cisco Music and Bernie Grundman have achieved with this 45rpm version of Famous Blue Raincoat 20th Anniversary Edition is shockingly perfect. I have never heard any version of Famous Blue Raincoat which sounds better... and I've heard them all. No caveats: This LP set is unbelievably gorgeous. I have been waiting two decades to hear it like this. Cisco's 45rpm edition is simply as good as Famous Blue Raincoat gets.

Jennifer Warnes

Film rights were in the offing for 'The Onion Field,' eventually made into a movie in 1979; 'The New Centurions' became a 1972 film starring George C. Scott, while 'The Blue Knight' starred William Holden in a 1973 mini-series version.

Sarah Weinman

Dyan Favre, Brett's nephew, is also a gem. Not just a favorite person from the book - a favorite person, period. I actually wound up writing this about him. Simply a good, righteous man.

Jeff Pearlman

The blue and bright-eyed floweret of the brook, Hope's gentle gem, the sweet Forget-me-not.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

In Leon's account of his life, no-one was mean-spirited, no-one schemed or lied or betrayed; everyone was celebrated at least in some degree... Leon turned out to be a spineless, grinning idiot.

Ian Mcewan

Bill Russell was my favorite player of all-time.

Bill Walton

Music has fed me a lot of ideas... The film BLUE VELVET came out of Bobby Vinton's version of the song BLUE VELVET.

David Lynch

George Jones was my all-time favorite singer and one of my favorite people in the world.

Dolly Parton

George Jones was my all time favorite singer and one of my favorite people in the world.

Everyone knows Spiderman is my favorite superhero of all time. My favorite supervillain? George W. Bush.

Corey Taylor

My favorite movie is 'The Women' from 1939. It's been my favorite movie since I was like 12 years old. I love the dialogue, really. It's just a lot of really strong female performances. Rosalind Russell kills it, you know.

Anna Kendrick

My brother Leon started it all. He played the piano. In school they made me leader of the orchestra because I played the violin, but I followed Leon and the boys in his jazz band around.

Louis Prima
