Richard Elliot has been blowing audiences away with his talent for more than 30 years and is now set to release Lip Service, an album that celebrates romance, on July 15. Currently playing on the “Summer Horns” tour with fellow saxophonists Dave Koz, Mindi Abair and Gerald Albright, Elliot has delivered a 10-song album featuring seven new original compositions and three covers of soul and pop hits from the ’80s (“Shining Star” by The Manhattans), the ’90s (“Anytime” by Brian McKnight) and today (“When I Was Your Man” by Bruno Mars). In collaboration with contemporary jazz guitar giant Paul Brown, this is the 17th solo project by Elliot.
“It’s not a radical departure,” Elliot says with a chuckle, “just a softer edge. The intensity is still there, just channeled in a different way. I’ve been madly in love with my wife Camella for 20 years (courtship and marriage combined). Romance has always been an important part of our relationship. With five children, there’s never a dull moment in our home but we always take time away for us…something we never had to work at. It just gets better every year - and that’s not lip service!”
A Southern Californian to the core, slow burning intensity has been Richard Elliot’s stock-in-trade since debuting as a member of the novel Chapman Stick-based quartet Kittyhawk in 1979 at the age of 19. With influences ranging from Grover Washington, Jr. to John Klemmer, his broad range of saxual expression knows no bounds. He has topped charts and toured the world as a leader as well as with innovative groups such as Guitars & Saxes and Tower of Power. - Hudba
One of the many reasons why Smooth Jazz is awesome!
Absolutely Amazinggg 💯 Facts!!
How cool is Richard Elliot? Nothing or nobody measures up close enough, except Boney James, Euge Groove, Vincent Ingala, Bob James & Jeff Kashiwa. Richard Elliot is the best sax player in the realm of smooth jazz.
Richard Elliot has always been one of my all time favorite smooth jazz artist. I really dig that cut givin' it up and how it breaks into that smooth but alittle edgy randition of California.
Mr. Richard you are a Legend

Smooth Jazz!!!!
His timing on solos and melody interpretations is the best out of the smooth jazz cats imo. The EWI/vocal thing at the end, while a bit out of place, is still pretty cool.
Professional at 100000th level, Bravo Man

Great musician,no doubt about it, love the way he express his feelings , thanks.

eric king Sax Dakota
Seth G look at 3:22 to 3:26 of this video. Looks very clear as a Yamaha Custom Z, tenor. I know he usually plays a SaxDakota, but the bell marks don't show that here.
I looked at the SaxDakota website & their bell markings are not like this. Could this be a new model?
you are correct, he must be utilizing both horns for the video shoot. Good observance bro.
It's Yamaha Custom Z in black lacquer. He's been playing that since the Summer Horns project.
eric king Yamaha Custom Z
Yamaha Custom Z (YTS-Z) tenor Sax.
** See close up from 3:22 to 3:26 of this video. Great sound!
He usually plays on a SaxDakota, but doesn't seem to be this time.
Would you tell me what the brand and model of this saxofone?
that keyboard player doesn't even have to play a note... and he RULES!
BEAUTIFUL!!! : ) Does anyone know who the bass player is? He's incredible!!! THANK YOU for sharing!!! : )
Nate Phillips
Tyrus Williams Bass Mods bass sounds great!

truly splenderous until 3:38 into it. Stick to great Sax Jazz my friend. That's why I listen to you. If I want hood music I'll pick up a copy of hood music. Otherwise superb.
