Description
Reissue of Spotlite's long deleted, collection of classic Dexter Gordon tracks, recorded for the Dial label in 1947. It features fellow tenor saxophonists Wardell Grey and Teddy Edwards amongst others, plus some rarely heard alternative takes. It offers a fascinating insight into what was happening along the West Coast of America during the boom years of bebop.
"(4 stars - 'an outstanding record') It's the Talk of the Town is the occasion for one of his most expressive ballad solos of those years." - Penguin Guide to Jazz
