The Asylum Choir

The Asylum Choir was an American rock duo active in the late 1960s. It was composed of keyboardist Leon Russell and guitarist Marc Benno.

Essentially a studio musician gathering, the Asylum Choir was formed around 1967 and the group's debut album was issued in 1968. A second album was recorded in 1969, but the album did not see release until late 1971 because of contract disputes. The duo had long since disbanded, but the second record sold well due to Russell's successful solo career, peaking at #70 on the Billboard 200 in 1972. Benno also became a successful solo artist later in the decade.
