▓████▓▌ Biography: ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Dexter Gordon had such a colorful and eventful life ▓▌
▓████▓▌ (with three separate comebacks) that his story ▓▌
▓████▓▌ would make a great Hollywood movie. The top tenor ▓▌
▓████▓▌ saxophonist to emerge during the bop era and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ possessor of his own distinctive sound, Gordon ▓▌
▓████▓▌ sometimes was long-winded and quoted excessively ▓▌
▓████▓▌ from other songs, but he created a large body of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ superior work and could battle nearly anyone ▓▌
▓████▓▌ successfully at a jam session. His first important ▓▌
▓████▓▌ gig was with Lionel Hampton (1940-1943) although, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ due to Illinois Jacquet also being in the sax ▓▌
▓████▓▌ section, Gordon did not get any solos. In 1943, he ▓▌
▓████▓▌ did get to stretch out on a recording session with ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Nat "King" Cole. Short stints with Lee Young, the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Fletcher Henderson Orchestra, and Louis Armstrong's ▓▌
▓████▓▌ big band preceded his move to New York in December ▓▌
▓████▓▌ 1944 and becoming part of Billy Eckstine's ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Orchestra, trading off with Gene Ammons on ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Eckstine's recording of "Blowin' the Blues Away." ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Gordon recorded with Dizzy Gillespie ("Blue 'N' ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Boogie") and as a leader for Savoy before returning ▓▌
▓████▓▌ to Los Angeles in the summer of 1946. He was a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ major part of the Central Avenue scene, trading off ▓▌
▓████▓▌ with Wardell Gray and Teddy Edwards in many ▓▌
▓████▓▌ legendary tenor battles; studio recordings of "The ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Chase" and "The Duel" helped to document the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ atmosphere of the period. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ After 1952, drug problems resulted in some jail ▓▌
▓████▓▌ time and periods of inactivity during the 1950s ▓▌
▓████▓▌ (although Gordon did record two albums in 1955). By ▓▌
▓████▓▌ 1960, he was recovered and soon he was recording a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ consistently rewarding series of dates for Blue ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Note. Just when he was regaining his former ▓▌
▓████▓▌ popularity, in 1962 Gordon moved to Europe where he ▓▌
▓████▓▌ would stay until 1976. While on the continent, he ▓▌
▓████▓▌ was in peak form and Gordon's many SteepleChase ▓▌
▓████▓▌ recordings rank with the finest work of his career. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Gordon did return to the U.S. on an occasional ▓▌
▓████▓▌ basis, recording in 1965, 1969-1970, and 1972, but ▓▌
▓████▓▌ he was to an extent forgotten in his native land. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ It was therefore a major surprise that his return ▓▌
▓████▓▌ in 1976 was treated as a major media event. A great ▓▌
▓████▓▌ deal of interest was suddenly shown in the living ▓▌
▓████▓▌ legend with long lines of people waiting at clubs ▓▌
▓████▓▌ in order to see him. Gordon was signed to Columbia ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and remained a popular figure until his gradually ▓▌
▓████▓▌ worsening health made him semi-active by the early ▓▌
▓████▓▌ '80s. His third comeback occurred when he was ▓▌
▓████▓▌ picked to star in the motion picture 'Round ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Midnight and, even if his playing by then was past ▓▌
▓████▓▌ its prime, Gordon's acting was quite realistic and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ touching. He was nominated for an Academy Award, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ four years before his death after a very full life. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Most of Dexter Gordon's recordings for Savoy, Dial, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Bethlehem, Dootone, Jazzland, Blue Note, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ SteepleChase, Black Lion, Prestige, Columbia, Who's ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Who, Chiaroscuro, and Elektra Musician are ▓▌
▓████▓▌ currently available. ▓▌

▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Review: ▓▌
▓████▓▌ One Flight Up was recorded in Paris on June 2, 1964 ▓▌
▓████▓▌ at CBS Studios. At the time tenor saxophonist ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Dexter Gordon was living in Copenhagen, and hooking ▓▌
▓████▓▌ up with fellow ex-patriots Donald Byrd (trumpet) ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and Art Taylor (drums), and enlisting the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ phenomenal Danish bassist Niels-Henning Orsted ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Pedersen (then only 17 years old), he recorded four ▓▌
▓████▓▌ rather lengthy tracks for the project, three of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ which ("Tanya," "Coppin' the Haven," "Darn That ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Dream") appeared on the original Blue Note LP. This ▓▌
▓████▓▌ reissue adds the fourth piece attempted that day, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "Kong Neptune." The end result is what is perhaps ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the most underrated album in Gordon's canon, and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the two modal-inflected pieces here, the eighteen ▓▌
▓████▓▌ minute "Tanya" and the eleven-plus minute "Coppin' ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the Haven," feature wonderful examples of Gordon's ▓▌
▓████▓▌ unique, slightly wounded-sounding sax style. As a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ black jazz musician living in Europe, Gordon would ▓▌
▓████▓▌ later say of this period that he finally felt like ▓▌
▓████▓▌ he could breathe, both as a horn player and as a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ human being. All of that freedom and well-deserved ▓▌
▓████▓▌ personal dignity is reflected in this set, and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ while a lot of European jazz recordings suffer in ▓▌
▓████▓▌ comparison with their American counterparts, that ▓▌
▓████▓▌ is not the case here. ▓▌
