Gary Benson (musician)
Gary Benson (born Harry Hyams, London) is an English singer-songwriter.
==Career==
Benson spent eight weeks in the UK Singles Chart in 1975 with his own composition, "Don't Throw It All Away". The single, released on the State Records label (State Records STAT10), reached No. 20 in the chart, leading to an appearance on BBC Television's ''Top Of The Pops''. The song had originally been recorded by The Shadows, and they had performed it in the 1975 A Song for Europe contest, where it finished fourth of six entries. The song was covered in the United States by The Delfonics in 1978. There are also a number of reggae versions that include a dancehall style cut by Barrington Levy
Benson had further attempts at winning the UK ticket to the Eurovision Song Contest, reaching the UK finals in 1977 with "After All This Time", performed by Wesley, Park and Smith, finishing fifth of 12; in 1981 with "All Cried Out", which he performed himself to place fourth of 8, and was later released on the WEA label; and in 1993 with "It's Just a Matter Of Time" performed by Sonia, finishing last of eight entries. Benson tried again in 1998 with Alan Glass on the song "Give It Up" performed by Lisa Millet which finished 8th of the eight songs in the show.
Benson's song "Let Her In", oddly credited to both Gary Benson and Harry Hyams, was recorded by John Travolta in 1975. Another of Benson's compositions, "Close To You", was recorded by Maxi Priest.〔()〕 In 1977, he composed and sang one of his sweetest melodies, "You", but it did not reach the UK chart.
