Dexter Gordon
Long tall Dexter: The savoy sessions
Original US 2LP released in 1976 on Savoy Records. Cat: SJL2211. This album has a gatefold sleeve.
In the mid- to late '40s, there were three great young tenor saxophonists: Dexter Gordon, Wardell Gray, and Teddy Edwards. Of the trio, Dexter Gordon had the greatest influence on upcoming players and was the most bop-oriented. This superb two-LP set contains all 17 selections Gordon cut for Savoy during 1945-1947 plus eight alternate takes and a jam session performance (with trumpeter Howard McGhee and altoist Sonny Criss) titled "After Hours Bop." Gordon is heard in a quartet, with several quintets (featuring such major players as pianist Bud Powell, drummers Max Roach and Art Blakey, baritonist Leo Parker, and trumpeter Fats Navarro) and in a septet with trumpeter Joe Newman and trombonist J.J. Johnson. Throughout, Gordon holds his own with the slightly older players and gets his career off to a brilliant start.
