CD Reviews

Dexter Gordon not the primary soloist

James S. Burpee | 02/06/2009

(3 out of 5 stars)

"Dexter Gordon is only one of several soloists on each tune and on a couple of tunes--as I remember--he does not solo. Therefore the title is misleading.

The big band is good and they all play well, however the sound quality is not the best...I would give the audio a B grade. The rating might even be two and a half stars. Disappointing."
