Album Review

For My Baby may be a Brook Benton collection, but since it lacks just about every song most people associate with him, like "Rainy Night in Georgia," "It's Just a Matter of Time," "Fools Rush In," and "The Boll Weevil Song," it isn't a particularly great collection. It does have his two duets with Dinah Washington, "Baby (You've Got What It Takes)" and "A Rockin' Good Way (To Mess Around and Fall in Love)," though, and that's a plus.
Steve Leggett, Rovi
