Untitled[edit]

Does it make sense to discuss their VHS 'Live in L.A.' tour video. While being out of print for a while, there still seems to be demand, as indicated on the Rippington's message board.

I tried cleaning up that part a little to make that section flow better. McFortner (talk) 03:23, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would recommend changing the first paragraph from "Freeman has been the only consistent member" to "Freeman created the Rippingtons as a band of contract musicians by design". Russ has stated this in interviews. I have followed Freeman and the Rippingtons closely for over 15 years and consider myself an authority on the band. Thanks for creating this page.

Nocturnal Playground[edit]

Nocturnal Playground is not a Rippingtons release. Russ Freeman released that album under his own name on Brianchild shortly before Moonlighting was released. (Jazzcat23--too lazy to sign-in today) 203.110.206.180 (talk) 10:45, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Built to Last wrong link[edit]

By the way, the link to Built to Last incorrectly leads to an album by Hogan's Heroes. I wasn't sure about the correct fix (how to now properly name the articles of the two albums) so I didn't touch the article. 80.223.182.224 (talk) 18:30, 2 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
