Reviews:

''It's Not Big It's Large'' is an album by Lyle Lovett and his Large Band, released in 2007 (see 2007 in music). The recording was made live in studio.

The title is a play on the name Lovett has given to his touring band since 1988. Lovett explains the title in an interview: "We've always done arrangements that border on blues music, that border on jazz arrangements, that border on what folks might think of as 'big band', but we don't really play big band music. But we've always had a lot of people in the band so that's why I call the band the 'Large Band' and not the 'Big Band'. But invariably people refer to the band as the 'Big Band' and ... it's not big... you get the idea."

The album debuted at number 18 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling about 25,000 copies in its first week. - Wikipedia
