Richard was extraordinary and played several songs throughout his musical career. The band was fantastic! Will definitely go see Richard whenever he performs in Charlotte Nc.

Excellent show but too short for me. I would love for him to continue for an extra 30 minutes I will go and see him again😉

When Richard Elliot and his band were playing, they were amazing! Each of the musicians are extremely talented and no one can top the way Richard Elliot plays the saxophone!
The reason for the three star rating is that the show lasted no more than an hour and twenty minutes and that is including their one encore song! When I realized that they were playing their last song, I looked at my watch and saw that it was 10:16. The show started a little after 9:00. Once the audience realized that it was the last song, we all clapped louder and cajoled the band to come out for more. They played one more song and that was it. We left the venue at no later than 10:30.
Also, it wasn't clear when buying the tickets that the show was being held in a small theater at the Loews Hotel. We were sitting in what is called the mezzanine which consisted of two rows of banquet chairs. Our view was fine and the seats were comfortable enough, it was just not what we were expecting.

About Richard Elliot
A Scottish-born saxophone player who first found fame as a member of the funk band Tower of Power. His solo career took off when he remade the Percy Sledge classic "When a Man Loves a Woman" (which had also been remade by Michael Bolton). Other well-known songs include "In the Groove," "Take Your Time," "Crush," "Corner Pocket," and "Sly" (presumably a tribute to Sly Stone), as well as remakes of classic pop songs like "I'm Not in Love" and the Luther Vandross hits "Here and Now" and "Your Secret Love."
Elliot participated with fellow saxophonists Paul Taylor, Gerald Albright and keyboardist Jeff Lorber in the "Grooving for Grover" concert series. The series honored the legacy of the late Grover Washington, Jr., who was a founding father of smooth jazz.
Elliot is best known for his zebra-striped tenor saxophone.
In 2005, Elliot joined trumpeter Rick Braun as they co-founded their own label, ARTizen Music Group. Among the first albums on that label is Elliot's own, Metro Blue.
