Grammy-nominated American contemporary jazz band and one of the best-loved and commercially successful jazz groups ever---THE RIPPINGTONS --- celebrate their 25th Anniversary with BUILT TO LAST.
Their career has spanned two decades. With a revolving door of musicians, Russ Freeman has been the only consistent member.
The titles of each hit Rippingtons album has often reflected Freeman's deep wanderlust, whether he had actually been to the places he wrote about or was just dreaming of them in musical terms. These include Kilimanjaro, Tourist in Paradise, Welcome to the St. James Club, Weekend In Monaco, Live in L.A., Sahara, Brave New World and Live Across America.
With this new album, they will take the fans to Cote D'Azur.
The range of music goes from orchestrated, widescreen epics, to lyrical, smooth ballads, and high energy, progressive jazz-rock. Rippingtons leader Russ Freeman has challenged himself and his band mates to make an imaginative, hook-filled collection, fronted by the new single Cougars and Gigolos.
This album is their biggest, most ambitious album ever. It contains 16 tracks with four bonus tracks and one reprise. Freeman has challenged himself and his band mates to make an imaginative, hook-filled collection. The mix of music is enticing and sure to please fans and newcomers alike, and includes four bonus alternative versions with full orchestra, adding a further, neo-classical dimension to this career landmark.
