Greg Osby and Sound Theatre

Greg Osby and Sound Theatre is the debut studio album by saxophonist Greg Osby recorded in 1987 and released on the JMT label.

Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states, "The performances (mostly Osby originals) are complex, somewhat abrasive, and in the M-Base genre, swinging in their own funky fashion and following a different logic than bebop. Osby plays quite well, and the music grows in interest with each listen".
