Dexter Gordon: 12 Classic Albums 1947-1962

GORDON, DEXTER

One of the finest tenor saxophonists to materialize during the bop era and carrier of his own idiosyncratic sound, Gordon shaped a large body of advanced work and could combat nearly anyone effectively at a jam session. His first important gig was with Lionel Hampton (1940-1943) although, due to Illinois Jacquet also being in the sax section, Gordon did not get any solos.
