Tiger Okoshi is a versatile trumpeter who has played both fusion and fairly straight-ahead jazz. A resident of the U.S. since 1972, Okoshi first gained attention playing with Gary Burton; he also had a stint with George Russell's Living Time Orchestra in the early '90s and recorded with Bob Moses. Okoshi has recorded regularly as a leader for JVC, including an unusual Louis Armstrong tribute album, Echoes Of A Note, on which he drastically modernized some Dixieland standards. Color Of Soil followed in 1998. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
