Description
180g audiophile vinyl reissue of legendary US saxophonist Dexter Gordon and his bass-and-drums trio of Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen and Alex Riel's 1981 LP 'Lullaby for a Monster'.
Back on June 15th, 1976 "Long tall Dexter" plunges into a blowing spree in this unusual piano-less trio format. "...It contains some of his freest solos, notably On Green Dolphin Street..." (The Penguin Guide to Jazz).
C. Andrew Hovan the author of the new liner notes for the album writes: "Lullaby for a Monster, recorded just before his triumphant homecoming, stands as a powerful reminder of an era when jazz giants roamed in abundance. A favorite among musicians, this album deserves wider recognition within Gordon's impressive discography."
"Intense and vibrant music throughout." - Diapason, France
"In this stripped down setting Dexter Gordon is truly on fire." - Soulpope - The Jazz Beat
Dexter Gordon: tenor saxophone
Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen: bass
Alex Riel: drums
