    Arkadia Jazz All-Stars: Thank You, Gerry! CD in a jewel case.

    The Arkadia Jazz All-Stars, featuring Jazz legends Lee Konitz, Bob Brookmeyer, and Randy Brecker, with the rhythm section of Ted Rosenthal, Dean Johnson, and Ron Vincent, the album Thank You, Gerry! is truly 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.

    “This fine CD is, as the title suggests, a tribute to the master composer, leader and musician by a group of excellent musicians. Rosenthal’s arrangements really evoke the Mulligan sound, and everyone is in top form. It’d be hard to let this album go.” – Jack Aldrich, Victory Music Review

    Whether performing on the epic Birth of Cool album with Miles Davis, Gil Evans, and 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.

    “THANK YOU, GERRY! Is a moving and appropriate titles for this recording. Every player on it demonstrates his appreciation and respect for Gerry the man and Gerry the musician. On this beautiful tribute album (from the Arkadia Jazz All-Stars), you “hear some of the unforgettable melodies and voicings and clear form that will always be remembered as the Mulligan sound.” – from the Dave Brubeck liner notes.

    Perhaps the greatest baritone sax player in Jazz history, Gerry Mulligan is honored on this extraordinary Arkadia Jazz All-Stars album, Thank You, Gerry! Our Tribute to Gerry Mulligan, by a group of prominent musicians who either played alongside the legend, or grew up under the influence of his indelible musical shadow.
