Review

Since Dexter Gordon's recording career was on hold from 1956-1960, one would have to assume that the 1955 session here is from the Bethlehem catalog, and the 1961-1967 dates are from Blue Note, Steeplechase, and/or Black Lion label dates. Of course, there no attributions for personnel or recording dates, so one can only guess. Gordon sounds good in this period, and the music itself is well chosen. One does wonder how someone got the rights to release this, if in fact they did. ~ Michael G. Nastos, All Music Guide
