Bud and Bird is a live album by Gil Evans that won the Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album in 1989. Evans conducted the orchestra, which included Hamiet Bluiett, Bill Evans, and Johnny Coles.

Reception

Шаблон:Album ratings In 1989, the album received the Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album posthumously. Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars stating "Some critics rapped Evans' '80s orchestras for their almost chaotic sound and loose feel. But Evans wanted a sprawling sensibility, and although his bands often seemed disorganized, they always maintained discipline in the midst of what others thought sounded like musical anarchy".
