I’m Always Dancin’ To The Music: Limited Green Vinyl LP

Philadelphian Jazz legend Benny Golson, an American bebop/ hard bop jazz tenor saxophonist, composer, and arranger, has had a long and storied career. He has played with luminaries such as John Coltrane, Dizzy Gillespie and Art Blakey, to name just a few. His credentials are rock solid and his skills as a tenor sax legend are undisputed.

With his 1978 album Im Always Dancin To The Music, Benny Golson takes a unique turn. Known primarily for his hard bop roots and classic compositions like Whisper Not and Killer Joe, Golson steps into the realms of jazz-funk and disco with this release, reflecting the musical trends of the late 1970s.

Produced by George Butler, whose credentials are no less than impressive, its no wonder the instrumental hook of this title song has been sampled many times by artists such as Naughty by Nature, Logistics, Leona Lewis, and many others.
