He was the first to develop a bebop style on tenor saxophone, with a big tough masine sound borrowed from Hawkins and Young, but essentially his own. In 1950, having barely scratched a reputation on the East Coast, he to Los Angeles, the city he considered his natural place. The consolidation of the West Coast-style in the early fifties, along with the personal problems that keep him in and out of jail, relegated the vigorous voice of Dexter Gordon to relative obscurity. Although he tried to straighten out, it took many years to work it out and to come to myself. He was waiting for a moment when people were interested in him again, and it came from the hand of Cannonball Adderley, who recommended him to Jazzland Records after hearing him play.

Dexter Gordon to full-fledged activity and deeply impressed all who heard his revitalized work, in person or on records.","brand":"Fresh Sound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53882865025366,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/dexter-gordon-doin-allright-dexter-callin-8427328609449","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
