  1. Dexter Gordon - Dexter Calling

    You know, I've decided I'm in agreement with Jerome Sabbagh—hard panning is the way to go for jazz combos.

    This recent Tone Poet rerelease is from a 1961 session with Gordon (tenor), Kenny Drew (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), and Philly Joe Jones (drums)...a definitely "you are there" recording, save for the traditional Van Gelder "piano under a blanket".

  6. Dexter Gordon, Dexter Calling, 1962 on Blue Note

    Released in mono in 1961 and in stereo in 1962, this was Gordon’s second album on Blue Note, following quickly after Doin’ Allright and five years after Daddy Plays the Horn.

    Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder at his studio in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. Gordon is joined by Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones, and Kenny Drew. Liner notes by Leonard Feather, produced by Alfred Lion.

    My copy is from the VMP Anthology The Story of Blue Note Records, which was first issued in 2019 and then reissued in 2024 – my copy is from that second edition.

  12. 3 things about Bertrand Tavernier’s ‘ROUND MIDNIGHT [1986]

    1. Running the cork from the bottle of rum around the rim of the glass of Coke.
    2. “If we’re going, let’s go early. You know, Lady Francis, there’s not enough kindness in the world.”
    3. The love in her eyes as she sings.

  15. Dexter Gordon demonstrating two of my favourite things - and no pedal riffs here and certainly no recycling of tired melodic themes - maybe a take on Unchained Melody - Happy 100th birthday Mr. Gordon!

  16. I had not heard of Horace Parlan before today! This is a superb album for a rainy Sunday afternoon. ❤️

    (apparently he was sideman on some Dexter Gordon and Charles Mingus recordings, which helps explain why I like him)
