  • ONE MY MOST FAVORITE TENOR PLAYERS. HIS SOUND REMINDS ME LESTER'S SOUND.

  • I'd guess around 1979 . . . I'm sure a historian type could research it and find dates that he played there.

  • @rioblanco you can list every great saxophonist ever, doesn't change the fact dexter gordon is the king of tenor

  • Love Lightsey!!!!! From a granddaughter to a grandfather, love seeing him with the great Dexter Gordon!!!!!

  • Congratulations. Thank you.

  • @yulelovethebeats

    Coltrane learned from Dex...

  • Love Dexter!  Great video....

  • Does anyone know when and where this concert was performed?

  • @regionalable. Not excluding any of those you listed. Just took the opportunity to point out Newk. Add to your list Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins, Illinois Jacquet, Stan Getz, Dexter Gordon, Clifford Jordan, Jimmy Heath, Vaughn Freeman and many others as well. Not trying to make a contest out of this, amigo. The list goes on...and on...and on. And we are the very fortunate beneficiaries of all this great talent.

  • @rioblanco Let's not leave out., J. Moody, Cannonball, Aderely,"Coltrane"  "Charlie" Sonny S.,and a few others.
