George Benson's version of "On Broadway", from his 1978 album "Weekend In L.A.", recorded live at the West Hollywood Roxy Theater, was an even bigger hit than The Drifters' original, hitting #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and would earn the crooner a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. Take a listen to Benson's sublime rendition below and Enjoy!
