Editorial Review:
Album Description: When Rick Braun and Richard Elliot decided to start ARTizen Music Group it was a pretty fair bet that collaboration would be on the boards. After all, Rick's best-selling release to date is his collaboration with Boney James (Shake It Up). Duet albums from Bob James & David Sanborn, Lee Ritenour & Dave Grusin, George Benson & Earl Klugh are among the top-sellers of this (or any) genre. Richard had toured with Rick numerous times yet hadn't a real studio long-player to share credits with. Nonetheless, for these two stars it had to be perfect. Almost three years later and over half a dozen releases on their label that time had come. The planets aligned and they began writing and recording their own record together. Tunes like the title track 'R n R,' the raucous horn charts of 'Curve Ball,' and an exotic little burner 'The Stranger' (see if you recognize the vamp) flowed from their collective musical wit and wisdom. From 'Que Paso's' catchy handclaps, late night charmer 'Two Heart Tango' and funkjam of 'Q It Up' - this is simply an album that won't stop entertaining and amazing. There is an implicit pun evoked in naming this release. The consistent stumbling block to recording together was variously solo records, a tour, someone else's record - never mind having a life. So when they found some time for R(est) n R (elaxtion) - what do they do? They make a record. True to its namesake, R n R is all about fun.

"R n R" is A top quality and varied set that will have broad appeal.
It is a joyous concoction of horn driven grooves and harmonic melodies enhanced by a stellar line-up of guest musicians that includes Greg Karukas, Jeff Lorber, Chris Standring, Portland-born bassist Nate Phillips, Randy Jacobs, Dwight Sills, drummer Ricky Lawson, percussionist Lenny Castro, trombonist Nick Lane, plus production input from Jeff Lorber, Philippe Saisse and Rex Rideout.
