Pacific Fire is an archival studio album by George Benson on CTI Records. This album consists of unreleased tracks recorded during the Good King Bad sessions. However, unlike Benson's other CTI recordings, this album remains out of print because Sony Music Entertainment does not own the rights to this album. It is also credited as the final release for CTI before the label temporary folded until the 1990s.
