Dexter was and is the epitome of gracious cool. The movie "Round Midnight" was a transcendental experience. I was fortunate to have seen Dex live once, in the early 80s. It was early on in the development of my musical consciousness, but not so early that I wasn't nearly overwhelmed by the richness and beauty of his musicianship and the music itself.

God Bless Dexter!

Dexter was great. His music is so alive. I wish I could have been in paris sitting in the smoke- filled club when he recorded my favorite ...his work entitled 'OUR MAN IN PARIS'. Does ANYBODY out there have knowledge on how I can obtain the sheet music/score of this great work 'OUR MAN IN PARIS'? If so, please email me the info as fast as you can. [eric.edwards@dfas.mil] Thanks for the great music Dexter ...and thanks to whomever gets me info on where/how I can obtain the aforementioned sheet music/score. I understand it is out of print, but where there is Dexter there's a way.

Just finished and posted a review of the reissue CD "Daddy Plays The Horn" on Jazzreview.com . This new site should have a section for reviews of Dexter's CDs for those people unfamiliar with his work and who would like to buy a CD.Looking forwards to the final site.

Dexter Gordon's music is a immense source of inspiration for me for many years! I think that Jazz would be very different today without him. Looking forward to this website! Thanks!

Playing the tenor was just a "natural" thing for Dexter.
I met him at Walter Booker's studio at 86th and Amsterdam, not long before his demise.
I love this "Mahna De Carnaval"....

Dexter, I realised too late how important he is. A supreme jazz master of the tenor (& soprano). My most powerful influence, then Coltrane I guess.

I still treasure my 10"lp of "The Chase" & "Steeplechase" with Dexter abd Wardell Gray. I used Dexter's "Don't Explain" on my Web site as one of the illustrations of Pres' influence on other great tenor players. The comments I received about that rendition were amazing, like it's the only one that is worth listening to after Billie's recording. Dexter was a master and his music, fortunately, lives on, in my case on the original vinyl. Great listening experiences.

I have been listening to Dexter Gordon since I was a kid, my father played the album dexter blows hot and cool and fell in love with his deep sound and sense of swing. and to this day I cannot stop playing his music, my sons friends ask who is that you're listening to and I let them know it's Dexter Gordon.
