Russ
Freeman Reunites with David Benoit on Project 2 June
29, 2004 - Ten years after they released their first
Project CD David
Benoit and Russ
Freeman are finally back with their follow up
simply titled 'The
Benoit-Freeman Project 2.' The album released
on Freeman's Peak label has been out since Tuesday
June 22. The two musicians go way back when they worked
together on the first Rippingtons album 'Moonlighting'
in 1986. Since then Freeman has lead the Rippingtons
to being one of the top acts in Smooth Jazz. Though
Benoit has made guest appearances with the Ripps the
pianist has had a long successful solo career having
released over thirty albums since 1977. Benoit's last
album 'Right Here Right Now' was officially his last
for GRP/Verve and appropriately he has signed on to
Freeman's Peak records. Benoit says his next album
will be released either late 2004 or early 2005. The
Benoit -Freeman Project have announced a short tour
so far. Click here for the details. http://www.peak-records.com/tour.html
