Description

ORIGINAL  Dootone DL 207.   flat edge red vinyl.    Vinyl is vg++ and plays vg++ ,  only light surface marks that can only be seen under bright light.  Cover has clear sharp graphics with vibrant colors.   top and bottom seams are split whole way however.  Spine is solid with some corner and edge wear at bottom left corner.   Only very light wear, looks great vg+.

Little was heard of tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon on-record during the 1950s; in fact this somewhat obscure LP (@Savoy, in one of their reissue programs, also released these performances) was one of Gordon's only three appearances on record (two as a leader) during 1953-1959. He fronts a quintet with pianist Carl Perkins, bassist Leroy Vinnegar, drummer Chuck Thompson, and the forgotten trumpeter Jim Robinson, and sounds pretty strong on the straight-ahead material. Few surprises occur but this collector's item from a dark period in Dexter Gordon's life has its share of fine music.
