Chameleon is a 1974 big band jazz album by Canadian jazz trumpeter Maynard Ferguson. It features cover versions of many songs that were popular in the years leading up to its production, including: "Jet" by Paul McCartney and Wings, "The Way We Were" – which was popularized by Barbra Streisand, and "Livin' for the City" by Stevie Wonder. He also pays tribute to trumpeter Bunny Berigan with his own take on "I Can't Get Started".

CD - Legacy, Sony Music Distribution. Although trumpeter Maynard Ferguson's mid- to late-'70s catalog was commercially viable, it also reflected the overindulgence that, in essence, defined the decade. By 1974, Ferguson had already become one of the most established figures in contemporary jazz. After performing with Stan Kenton & His Orchestra in 1950, he became a prolific recording artist. Unlike many jazz players, Ferguson maintained his chops, arguably gaining incremental momentum for his trademark high-range blasting, which is evident throughout this LP. Stylistically, Chameleon (1974) is all over the place

Maynard Ferguson: Chameleon, Conquistador by Matt Merewitz, published on October 7, 2003. Chameleon, originally released in 1974, kicks things off well with the album’s namesake. After that, however, besides a few good moments that admirably feature individual soloists in the band, things fall apart. Ferguson never fully realizes that his screaming lead doesn’t really work over ballads. His fireworks just get old after the first three songs. He would have been more effective in giving his arrangers all Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea material to adapt for high-energy big band.
