Guest Ivor Jones Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 George Benson did the Instrumental but I cannot remember who did the vocal... or was I dreamingWell Paul, you could be getting confused here……The George Benson version is mainly instrumental but does have vocal verses too, though further into the song…..give it a proper listen when you get a chance.

George Benson's version led me to Donny Hathaway's, which I already had, but had never played on the flip of Magdelena. Kev Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
