ItemImageSilky smooth: that was Brook Benton's byword from his first record to his very last, as the singer parlayed his rich baritone pipes into seven number one R&B hits and eight Top Ten items. Stints on the gospel circuit preceded Benton's first secular session for Okeh in 1953, but his career didn't begin to take off until he teamed with writer/producer Clyde Otis.

Brook Benton is so underated. He should have been selected in the first round to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He has the best voice I ever heard in my entire life of 54 years. Here is a singer who makes any song a joy to listen to. Why is it that he doesn't get the acolades of a Frank Sinatra or Nat King Cole? His silky voice is a rarity. I listen to him every minute I can. It's about time a recording company bring out a box set of his songs.I crave for his songs........

Brook Benton brings to life every recording he has ever made. From sad song ballads to more pop sounding recordings he manages to convey these Feelings into his listeners. Each and every song is a pure delight. Brook cannot be beaten. A great style and a great singer.

Brook Benton is the best male soul artist I have ever heard! He is my favorite artist. I buy every CD & mint condition lp I can find to enhance my collection of this awesome artist. He is absolutely deserving of being entered in the rock & roll hall of fame, and a star on the sidewalk.
