Those who complain of "wrong notes" here sound like the moldy figs, Dixieland fans who complained bitterly at the advent of Be-Bop in the early 1940's. Warmth and beauty just flow from one of the great improvisers. To caress a lyric like this requires a lifetime of practice and insight. Dexter is the master balladeer and bopper without equal.
- beautiful playing, Dexter was a great musician.. I will never forget the concerts I heard live several times...and the meeting we had in Village Vanguard in 1981 - he was also a very kind person, and you can hear that in he's art!
It fascinates me that one of the listeners thinks Dex is playing lots of wrong notes. It is all a matter of what you are used to, I guess. Maybe he is a IV-V-I rocker just visiting (?)

Sounds like the 12 year old daughter of our neighbour who has just started to learn to play but keeps hitting the wrong notes. Took me over a minute to figure out what the actual tune was.
@wuzart hey your one of the biggest assholes of music. you need to learn good music by listening 2 good music. this sounds far better then a 12 year old
This is the ultimate Christmas hello from the other side.. It is pure happiness listening to this. Thank you Dexter Gordon.

I'm from the UK so technically that makes me an 'arsehole' not an 'asshole', unless of course you were likening me to the anus of an obese donkey :)

This is great. Love the retro tenor tinge he puts on this throughout. You can hear so many influences of those who came before.
