Little Big Horn

　"Little Big Horn," Gerry Mulligan's first album that was recorded and digitally mastered for GRP Records, finds him in a new musical environment supported by the studio wizardry of musicians such as keyboardist, composer, arranger Dave Grusin, bassist Anthony Jackson, drummer Buddy Williams, and Richard Tee on piano. The six recent Mulligan compositions include pieces for big band, small groups, and even a vocal performance all sharing Gerry Mulligan's distinctive melodic approach to arrangement and saxophone improvisation.
