Big Band is a 1954 album by Charlie Parker of sides recorded in 1950 and 1952.

[3] In 1999 Big Band was reissued with bonus material and outtakes.

[3] Stacia Proefrock reviewed the reissue of the album for Allmusic and wrote that these "Though Joe Lipman's arrangements are stellar, the musicians assembled for the sessions are an odd mix of Popular Music big-band players and improvisers.

The album en todo also suffers from the Popular Music style of the songs themselves: solos are kept short, and songs limited to a three-minute length that was both radio-friendly and compatible with the 78-rpm format.

The songs also have a sweet smoothness to them that makes them eminently enjoyable although jazz variety is lacking.
