Benjamin Franklin Peay (September 19, 1931 – April 9, 1988), known professionally as Brook Benton, was an American singer and songwriter whose music spanned rock and roll, rhythm and blues, and pop music genres in the 1950s and 1960s, with hits such as "It's Just a Matter of Time" and "EndlesslyEndlesslyStudio albumSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 12 tracksA1People Will Say We’re in Love2:20A2Because of You3:20A3More Than You Know2:17A4Blue Skies2:37A5Time After Time3:07A6A Lovely Way to Spend an Evening2:40B1Endlessly2:19B2The Things I Love3:31B3(It’s No) Sin2:39B4Around the World2:43B5May I Never Love Again2:36B6You’ll Never Know2:22".

Benton scored more than 50 Billboard chart hits as a singer/songwriter and with compositions he wrote for other performers.

Early life and career

Benton began singing gospel music in a Methodist church choir in Lugoff, South Carolina, where his father was choir master.
In 1948, Benton went to New York where he joined The Langfordaires and The Jerusalem Stars before joining The Sandmen. Epic Records signed The Sandmen in 1954, immediately sending the group to record at the Columbia studios in New York. Columbia placed The Sandmen on its Okeh Records. Upon a second recording session, Okeh decided to push Benton as a solo artist. Benton recorded his first solo, "The Kentuckian SongThe Kentuckian Song1955 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 2 tracksAThe Kentuckian Song3:04BOoh", the theme from a movie of the same name.
Benton switched to RCA's Vik subsidiary in 1957, where he had a single chart appearance, 1958's "A Million Miles From Nowhere", which peaked at No. 82 on U.S. charts. He wrote two songs that charted for other performers, Clyde McPhatter's "A Lover's Question" and Nat King Cole's "Looking Back".
In 1958, Benton signed with Mercury Records, where he recorded hits "It's Just A Matter Of Time", "EndlesslyEndlesslyStudio albumSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 12 tracksA1People Will Say We’re in Love2:20A2Because of You3:20A3More Than You Know2:17A4Blue Skies2:37A5Time After Time3:07A6A Lovely Way to Spend an Evening2:40B1Endlessly2:19B2The Things I Love3:31B3(It’s No) Sin2:39B4Around the World2:43B5May I Never Love Again2:36B6You’ll Never Know2:22", "Thank You Pretty BabyThank You Pretty Baby1960 · EPSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 4 tracksA1So Many Ways2:29A2Thank You Pretty Baby2:29B1With All My Heart2:32B2I Want You Forever2:23", "So Many WaysSo Many Ways1959 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 2 tracksASo Many Ways2:29BI Want You Forever2:23", "Baby (You've Got What It Takes)", "A Rockin' Good Way" (both duets with Dinah Washington), "KiddioKiddio1961 · EPSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 4 tracksA1Kiddio2:37A2The Same One2:28B1The Ties That Bind2:52B2Hither Thither and Yon2:28", "The Boll Weevil SongThe Boll Weevil Song1961 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 2 tracksAThe Boll Weevil Song2:35BYour Eyes2:52", and "Hotel HappinessHotel Happiness25 March 2016 · Album · CompilationSpotify YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 12 tracks1Hotel Happiness2:372Thank You Pretty Baby2:343Lie to Me2:154Think Twice2:375The Same One2:346So Many Ways2:327It’s Just a Matter of Time2:328Baby (You’ve Got What It Takes)2:579Endlessly2:2810The Boll Weevil Song2:5111Revenge2:4512A Rainy Night in Georgia3:49".
One of Benton's sisters was the original artist to record "Baby (You've Got What It Takes)", in 1958, under the title "You've Got What It Takes", using the stage name Dorothy Pay, as the B-side of her single "Strollin' with My Baby". In August 1959 Benton partnered with Dinah Washington to record the song and their version, released in January 1960, was hugely successful on both the pop and R&B charts, reaching No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Hot R&B sides chart for 10 weeks, becoming one of the most successful R&B singles of the 1960s.

Success

In 1959, he finally made his breakthrough with hits like "It's Just a Matter of Time" and "EndlesslyEndlesslyStudio albumSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 12 tracksA1People Will Say We’re in Love2:20A2Because of You3:20A3More Than You Know2:17A4Blue Skies2:37A5Time After Time3:07A6A Lovely Way to Spend an Evening2:40B1Endlessly2:19B2The Things I Love3:31B3(It’s No) Sin2:39B4Around the World2:43B5May I Never Love Again2:36B6You’ll Never Know2:22". "It's Just a Matter of Time" peaked at No. 3 on the United States Billboard Hot 100 chart, sold over one million copies and was awarded a gold disc by the RIAA. "Endlessly" made it to No. 12. Both of the first two hits were written by Benton with Clyde Otis. They were originally offered to Nat King Cole, but when Otis became an A&R manager and producer at Mercury, he convinced Benton to sign with the label and record them himself, while asking Cole not to record the songs as planned. Benton followed this success with a series of hits, including "So Many WaysSo Many Ways1959 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 2 tracksASo Many Ways2:29BI Want You Forever2:23" (No. 6), "Hotel HappinessHotel Happiness25 March 2016 · Album · CompilationSpotify YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 12 tracks1Hotel Happiness2:372Thank You Pretty Baby2:343Lie to Me2:154Think Twice2:375The Same One2:346So Many Ways2:327It’s Just a Matter of Time2:328Baby (You’ve Got What It Takes)2:579Endlessly2:2810The Boll Weevil Song2:5111Revenge2:4512A Rainy Night in Georgia3:49" (No. 3), "Think Twice" (No. 11), "KiddioKiddio1961 · EPSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 4 tracksA1Kiddio2:37A2The Same One2:28B1The Ties That Bind2:52B2Hither Thither and Yon2:28" (No. 7), and "The Boll Weevil SongThe Boll Weevil Song1961 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 2 tracksAThe Boll Weevil Song2:35BYour Eyes2:52" (No. 2). In 1960, he had two top 10 hit duets with Dinah Washington: "Baby (You've Got What It Takes)" (No. 5) and "A Rockin' Good Way (to Mess Around and Fall in Love)" (No. 7).
In the mid 1960s, Benton recorded for RCA Records and Reprise Records with minimal commercial success. Then, in 1968, he signed with Cotillion Records, a subsidiary of Atlantic Records, where, the following year, he enjoyed his last major hit with "Rainy Night in GeorgiaRainy Night in Georgia18 September 2001 · Album · CompilationSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 25 tracks1Rainy Night in Georgia4:062Think Twice2:513Kiddio2:344My True Confession2:355Hotel Happiness2:376So Many Ways2:297Frankie & Johnny2:268Revenge2:279It’s Just a House Without You2:3010The Boll Weevil Song2:5011Thank You Pretty Baby2:2312So Close2:0713The Ties That Bind2:2714I Got What I Wanted2:5715Devoted2:3016Crazy in Love With You2:3317Only Your Love2:3618Lie to Me2:1219I Wanna Do Everything for You1:5020A Door That Is Open2:3321If Only I Had Known2:2222A Lover’s Question2:5523For My Baby3:1024It’s Just a Matter of Time2:2825Next Stop Paradise2:33", written by Tony Joe White and produced and arranged by Arif Mardin, a million-seller which topped the Billboard R&B chart. Cornell Dupree played guitar on the song. Benton recorded a total of five albums with Mardin, including a gospel album, during his stay at Cotillion.
Benton eventually charted a total of 49 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, with other songs charting on Billboard's rhythm and blues, easy listening, and Christmas music charts. The last album made by Benton was Fools Rush In, which was released posthumously in 2005. He also had records released on various other labels, including All-Platinum, Brut, Olde Worlde, Stax and Groove Records.

Death

Weakened from spinal meningitis, Benton died of pneumonia in Queens, New York City, at the age of 56 on April 9, 1988. He was survived by his wife, Mary Benton, and six children: Brook Jr., Vanessa, Roy, Is'real, Gerald, and Benjamin.
