Dreaming of Benson

I had a dream last night that I was in this giant two story venue/ ballroom. The cool thing about it was that it was set up in a Venice type style. So I was cruising around in a boat talking to different people. I remember even taking a couple of dips in the water and how great it felt. We rowed to the stage area where everybody was gathered around watching one of my favorite old school r&b artist playing, George benson. Back when I used samples to make beats, he was one of my favorite go to guys for samples. I had a lot of his records. His guitar playing and the sound of his voice can always put me in a trance. The random part of the dream was that after watching him play we rowed to a staircase and went up stairs to meet the royal family and take a picture with the queen. Not for sure how this situation came about in my sleeping brain. Probably from the jubilee tv coverage that I saw on tv the other day. But anyway, it was definitely a dream that I would not mind having again. But here is the cool part, while driving to work this morning, guess who I hear on the radio, mr. George benson himself!! They played his song “on broadway” I think back in the day I might have sampled that one too.
