Alex Matijaca From: Toronto Website: E-mail: amatijaca@gmail.com	Just want to say hi - I am a huge Dex fan, ever since I saw his movie Round Midnight in the 80s. I am also a collector of Dex' LPs - I am looking for the LP Cheese Cake (not the song Cheese Cake on the GO! album) - if you have the LP - drop me a line at amatijaca@gmail.com. It is sadly missing from my collection.. Added: February 22, 2013 X

Barney From: New York Website: E-mail:	God spoke through Dexter. The three times I heard him at the Jazz Gallery in NYC and the Village Vanguard (twice) were the powerful musical experiences I have ever had. I miss him. Added: November 14, 2012 X

Tipp From: Greensboro Website: E-mail: tipp@usa.com	I became aware of Dexter when I was 17 years old and a freshman at college. I would get tired on life on campus and go to borders and listen to different cds. One night, I came across Dexter Gordon's Ballads cd. INSTANTLY, I fell in love! His horn vibrates with such an essence of love. Added: November 7, 2012 X

Alberto Duarte From: Chile Website: E-mail: albertoduarte@gmail.com	I saw Dexter in Mexico City on 1978 or 79 when I was a teenager and I was amazed. He use to finish their songs offering the saxophone to the stars....it was a magic event that I have engraved on my soul. I will be very happy if I can get any info about that concert. Maybe there is a music register or press coemments.... Added: October 20, 2012 X

JJ Semple From: NY Website: http://www.lifeforcebooks.com/ E-mail: jjsemple@lifeforcebooks.com	I saw Dexter in Paris many times during the 70s and in NY during the 60s. Started collecting his records in the 50s. In the liner notes of Takin' Off, the writer states Dex was Pres. Kennedy's favorite tenor player. I believe it; he's mine. A true Tower of Power. Possibly the most complete, most intense tenor solo of all time is his on Herbie Hancock's "The Maze." Other great solos: "Doin' Allright," "Secret Love," "Tanya," on Manhattan Symphonie, "You Can Depend on Me." In fact, the great ones are too numerous to list here. He was robbed by Hollywood stiffs who gave the Oscar to safe choice Paul Newman for a very ordinary performance instead Dexter for his poignant role as Dale Turner in "Round Midnight." I watched the ceremony on TV, watched Dexter's face as they announced the winner. He knew he had won, seemed like he'd been slighted like that before, was used to it. Added: October 20, 2012 X

Google From: New York Website: http://google.com E-mail: gogoglegoogle.c@googleac.om	During his Europe period Dexter stayed a number of times overnight in what's now is my house. He played here together with sir Pierre Courbois and Hans Haverhoek. Also a movie has been made here. Now of course I would like to have a copy of that movie so if anyone has an idea where it is and/ or how to get that, I'm very interested! Added: May 9, 2012 X
