Geechee Recollections is an album by the American jazz saxophonist Marion Brown recorded in 1973 and released on the Impulse! label.^[1]

Reception

The Allmusic reviewer Brian Olewnick awarded the album 4 stars, writing, "Brown receives excellent support by a strong ensemble including trumpeter Leo Smith and the great drummer Steve McCall. Brown, with his marvelously limpid tone on alto, is a joy to hear and seems more at home and relaxed here than on some of his more strident early records. Recommended".^[2]
