Cote D'azur

Editor's info:
2011 release from Russ Freeman and his legendary Rippingtons. Fans that have followed The Rippingtons for any stretch of time over the past quarter century know the versatile award winning and Grammy nominated guitarist/composer and producer has long had a penchant for naming songs and albums after exotic places ("Aruba," "Kenya," "Morocco," Weekend in Monaco, Sahara, et al). But The Ripps' latest recording Cote D'Azur--inspired by Freeman's passion for the French people and the storied region of the French Riviera--is more than simply the latest stamp on Freeman's well traveled passport. Beyond simple wanderlust or a gathering of "musical postcards" from the Southern region of France, it taps into a spirit that's deeper and more transcendent than any other group project to date.
