Dexter Gordon was a renowned tenor saxophonist during the bebop era. Born on February 27, 1923 in Los Angeles, California, he drew inspiration from influential tenor players of the 1930s and 1940s such as Lester Young, Herschel Evans, and Illinois Jacquet. With his distinctive sound and improvisational skills, Gordon made a significant impact on jazz music.

Throughout his career, Dexter Gordon collaborated with numerous talented musicians including Oliver Nelson, Sonny Rollins, Hank Mobley, Kenny Dorham, Jackie McLean, Freddie Hubbard, Sonny Stitt, Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, Joe Henderson, Clifford Brown and many more.

Gordon's legacy lives on through his timeless recordings and contributions to the jazz genre. His unique style continues to inspire aspiring musicians around the world.

Though he first recorded in the late-1940s, Dexter Gordon’s Blue Note debut Doin’ Allright — recorded and released in 1961 — marked a rebirth for the great tenor saxophonist after a decade in which drug addiction and legal troubles limited his output. But his Blue Note years put him back on top with a run of essential albums that stand as classics of the jazz canon. Doin’ Allright featured a top flight quintet with trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, pianist Horace Parlan, bassist George Tucker, and drummer.
