This is one compilation that really gets the essentials to you and doesn't overdo the Drifters material. Ben E. King was such a gifted singer that in my opinion, he has still yet to be equalled. But ask someone to name some great singers and you may not hear his name. Pick up this album: a wonderful mix of r&b, soul, and country. Pure class from one of the greats....

There are clearly some memorable songs on this CD but there are at least 6 tunes that are "covers" and were done originally by other artists whom you think of when you hear them. Try the CD, "Very Best of Ben E. King". Those songs belong only to him....

I love that song. I heard it in high school, when King first sang it. I was one of the kids in the great movie Stand By Me, but you'll have to guess which one. Actually I'm sure I played every role, good guy and bad, sometime or other. That movie, and that song, was the whole truth and nothing but the truth about the USA in the 1950s. I've bawled or bellowed that song in taverns, youth hostels, se...

Ben E. King cut a lot of albums for Atco/Atlantic, but these two rank at the top in terms of customer requests. Why? Well, 1975 s Supernatural was just that, a jaw-dropping demonstration of how easily this classic smooth soul master could adapt to the disco sounds of the day, while the Us in 1977 s Benny and Us happens to be the Average White Band, whom Ben E. met by chance down in Miami and ended...

Truly one of the great soul singers--"Stand By Me" alone would merit that salutation--Ben E. King was also on the receiving end of songs by many of the top writers of the period, such as Phil Spector, Carole King, Doc Pomus, and the immortal Lieber/Stoller team. King's gorgeous baritone, these songwriters, and the flawless '60s Atlantic Records' production make for most of this two-disc set. Also,...
