In the late 1960s Marc Benno began performing on guitar with multiple groups throughout Austin, Texas. After relocating to Los Angeles he teamed with Leon Russell to create the duo Asylum Choir, which issued an album in 1968 and tracked a follow-up before disbanding. Issued during Leon Russell’s commercial breakthrough in 1971, the second Asylum Choir album reached #70 on the charts. Benno went on to record four mainstream pop/rock albums across the 1970s, the strongest of which was his third, Ambush, released in 1972.
