In 1976, Jim Gannon was working tirelessly to carve out his niche of his own in the jazz world. Already a seasoned performer alongside the likes of The Buddy Rich Big Band, Herbie Mann, Sam Most, and Woody Herman, Gannon was primed to step out of the shadows and create something distinctly his own. Gannon's Back in Town, now a treasured rarity in any collector's arsenal, champions the experimental sound of the vibrant tapestry of late 1970s Hollywood jazz.
