Asylum Choir II is the second and final album of the studio aggregation consisting of Leon Russell and Marc Benno. It was recorded and expected to be released in 1969, but legal hassles held up its release for two years. The 1995 digitally remastered CD re-release contains as bonus cuts all but three of the tracks from their first album.
