Featuring Jazz legends Lee Konitz, Bob Brookmeyer, & Randy Brecker, with the rhythm section of Ted Rosenthal, Dean Johnson, and Ron Vincent, the CD Thank You, Gerry! is a moving and endearing tribute album to Cool Jazz icon Gerry Mulligan. Every player demonstrates his appreciation and respect for baritone saxophonist, composer, and arranger Gerry Mulligan; both the man and the musician. On this beautiful recording (which was nominated for a Grammy Award for the song My Funny Valentine), you will hear the unforgettable melodies and brilliant compositions that will always be the signatures of Mulligan s sound. Whether performing on the epic Birth of Cool album with Miles Davis, Gil Evans, & John Lewis, working with Claude Thornhill and Stan Kenton, or playing Cool Jazz alongside Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan is renowned for the light sounds of his virtuosic saxophone playing and his brilliant compositions. Perhaps the greatest Baritone sax player in Jazz history, Gerry Mulligan is honored on this extraordinary album by a group of prominent musicians who either played alongside the legend, or grew up under the influence of his indelible musical shadow.
