Clint Rosemond From: Los Angeles Website: E-mail: cfrosemond@aol.com	Great site. I'm guessing that WoodyIII had a lot to do with this. Very good job. Dex gave us some of the very best music that has ever graced the planet. People will be discovering it into centuries ahead. I'm just happy that I got a chance to know this beautiful musician and human being before he made his transition. His music and spirit will always be an inspiration. "Go" Added: November 19, 2007 X

Delle Case From: Paris Website: http://www.cuiretdentelles.com E-mail: info@cuiretdentelles.com	Toutes mes félicitations pour votre site consacré ŕ Dexter. J’ai eu l’occasion et la chance de connaître Dexter ŕ Paris pendant les années 70 lorsque j’étais élčve au conservatoire de musique en classe saxophone. Nous avons pu échanger nos impressions sur différents sujets. J’ai pu constater la richesse de sa culture philosophique un volet de sa personnalité que l’on connaît moins. Lors d’une soirée bien arrosée il m’avait appelé Little Bigmann car j’avais l’air ce jour lŕ de mieux tenir l’alcool que lui. Il est vrai que je mesure 1,65M alors devant Dexter ! J’étais un nain. Pour moi Dexter réuni en un seul homme toutes les tendances des saxophonistes, je considčre qu’il ŕ réussi ŕ offrir ŕ ses auditeurs un panel d’une grande richesse. Je m’appelle Philippe Delle Case aujourd’hui je ne joue plus, âgés de 60 ans je gčre un site de lingerie féminine. Je remercie au passage Nicole Leroy grâce ŕ qui j’ai pu rencontrer Dexter. Je remercie également Dexter ŕ titre posthume pour les moments agréables qu’il m’a donné et qu’il continu ŕ me donner. All my congratulations for your site devoted to Dexter. I was likely the occasion and to know Dexter in Paris during the Seventies when I was pupil with the academy of music in claaxophone. We could exchange our impressions on various subjects. I could note the richness of his philosophical culture a shutter of his personality which one knows less. At the time of one evening sprinkled well it had called me Little Bigmann because I seemed this day to better hold alcohol there that him. It is true that I then measure 1,65M in front of Dexter! I was a dwarf. For me Dexter joined together as an only one man all the tendencies of the saxophonists, I consider that it with succeeded in offering to his listeners a panel ofreat richness. I am called today Philippe Delle Case I do not play more, 60 years old I manage a site of female linen room. I thank in the passing Nicole Leroy thanks to which I could meet Dexter. I also thank Dexter on a purely posthumous basis for the moment pleasant that it gave me and that it continuous to give me. Added: November 19, 2007 X

David Rothschild From: Amsterdam Website: E-mail: davidr@chello.nl	Some great musicians have something special and indescribable. Impossible to analyse, but you feel something extra special when you listen to them. For me, during the past 35 years of listening to jazz, there have only been a couple of those extra special greats. For me personally, they are Cedar Walton, Freddie Hubbard and Dexter Gordon. Just a special spirit and they all make me feel great. One of the greatest evenings of my life was seeing Dexter Gordon in NY after his return from Europe. It was probably 1976 or so. One of his very first gigs back in NY was in George Weins shortly lived club called Storytown in midtown on the east side. Probably a $2.00 cover and no minimum. Imagine! I went out this evening with a large group of music students who were all studying at the School of Performing Arts on 46th st. Many of us wise 17 year olds were already Dexter freaks, others were not. It was a dream for us to see Dexter playing live. The first set was amazing! In the break a bunch of us went to the bathroom to get stoned. That's what you did back then in NY. This is just before the Reagan, Bush era. You could pretty much get high anywhere you wanted. Clubs, movie theaters, wherever. Anyway, we were getting wasted in the bathroom and we were all realy happy and pretty stoned. Who walks in? Dexter! We all freaked out and asked him if he'd like to get high with us and he did! We were like kids in a candy store. It was an absolutely unforgettable evening of great music and happiness. A week later I saw him again at the Village Vanguard with another band. Also great. The world is a better place because Dexter was among us. He was and is an inspiration to all jazz musicians. A gentle giant. Added: October 24, 2007 X

John Stroman From: San Jose Website: E-mail: jfstroman@comcast.net	Thanks for your art. You're one of my favorite musicians. You don't need me to tell you how bad you are. I'm writing to apologize for shamelessly trying to play like you. I'll work on my own style -- that I promise, but in case I fail at that, I'm taking yours! LOL! You better hope I give it back. (assuming I ever master it...I am having some dificulty...LOL!) Love, John Added: October 23, 2007 X
