Paradise...

GAWenzler

Russ Freeman shines on this CD. "Paradise" is one of my fav songs ever, and it's just a start. Hard to go wrong with ANYTHING The Rippingtons have done, but this one is extra special.

One of the BEST Rips CD since Moonlighting!

Kilks

This is so far the best Rippingtons CD since "Moonlighting" (1986) - Russ' compositions are very diversified: from pop, latin, chillout to the usual smooth jazz tunes. I'll give this recording a "2 Thumbs Up"! This group never fails to excite us with every new release especially the final track "In The End" - goosebumps all over me as tears began to fall into my eyelids - very touching indeed.

Wild Card Rocks

Jazz Junky

Once again, Russ Freeman and the Rippingtons delivers with another fantastic CD. I would expect nothing less from such world class musicians. Wild card is a pleasure to listen to, and was well worth the wait.

Smooth jazz stalwarts the Rippingtons infuse their trademark brand of instrumental pop with a Latin aesthetic on Wild Card. Once again featuring the lead guitar of Russ Freeman, the Rippingtons deliver a solid collection of mellow contemporary pop and lite jazz that should please longtime fans. Evenly split between R&B-inflected cuts such as the Aretha Franklin hit “Till You Come Back to Me” and Latin tracks including the flamenco-inspired “Spanish Girl” and the salsa-ready “Mulata di Mi Amor,” Wild Card is a pleasant listen. – Matt Collar
