notes, Dexter morgan: serial killer

The save file for the calculation can be found here, which can be imported into the resolver to reproduce the calculation. He was a major part of the Central Avenue scene, trading off with Wardell Gray and Teddy Edwards in many legendary tenor battles; studio recordings of “The Chase” and “The Duel” helped to document the atmosphere of the period. Dexter Gordon had such a colorful and eventful life (with three separate comebacks) that his story would make a great Hollywood movie.

His front–line partner is Thad Jones, one month Gordon’s junior, who worked in the Basie trumpet section from 1954 to 1963, and co-led the Thad Jones–Mel Lewis Orchestra from 1966 until 1978. Out of Philadelphia, Timmons had risen to prominence a decade earlier with Art Blakey, for whom he composed such soul jazz classics as “Moanin’” and “’Dat Dere. He had this relaxed, behind-the-beat way of playing that made him swing harder than most of the saxophone players. Around this time, Don Schlitten—who went on to produce four of the albums that appear on this collection—first saw Gordon at a Sunday afternoon jam session at the Club 845 on Prospect Avenue and 160th Street in the Bronx. The version I put now out, is the one where for a moment you see two weapons, as that version was more popular.Minniver” wasn’t named for a personal friend: rather it’s for the title character of the 1940 novel by Jan Struther, filmed in 1942 with Walter Pidgeon and Greer Garson in the featured roles (I believe Dexter admired Garson particularly). Though these would be his last New York performances until 1976, American enthusiasts enjoyed numerous Gordon recordings with the Danish Steeplechase label, which signed him in the latter part of 1972.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Lester Young made the song famous with Basie in 1940, and Gordon memorably covered it on Our Man in Paris in 1963. Fittingly, the 88th and final track is a rousing Dexter Gordon–Gene Ammons tenor battle, augmented by Nat and Cannonball Adderley, on a spontaneous Ammons riff titled “’Treux Bleu,” in honor of the venue.This is a guy who had the ability to think ballad during an up tempo piece, and that’s why he sounds so smooth and so full. A week later, Gordon entered Van Gelder’s studio with a quintet of jazz virtuosos, and recorded seven tunes, several of blatantly commercial intent. He has had a lot of upheaval in his life and not many boundaries which has resulted in him being quite difficult for the average dog owner to handle. I have been on the committee of the Cambridge student societies The Archimedeans, CUPS, the SRCF and the RCSA.

Thus begins a cohesive session on which, as Schlitten says, “the stars were aligned, the elements were right, and everyone was in the mood to play beautiful.

Gene’s ears were so good that he would come up and play everything back, and then play a low B-flat or a note where people would just go ‘Wow!

A lot of joy always came through in Dexter’s playing, and it’s probably the thing about him that influenced me most. The thing about Dexter that hits me more than anything else is the depth and hugeness and commanding power of his sound.

However, many of those in power were not very keen on allowing someone as uneducated as Dexter to have a position in politics. By 1965 he’d recorded four freewheeling albums under Don Schlitten’s supervision, two with an anything-goes rhythm section—iconoclastic stride-to-avant pianist Jaki Byard, virtuoso bassist Richard Davis and Boston drum giant Alan Dawson. He was very urbane and appreciated the finer things in life, but he had a common touch with people—he got along with a whole spectrum. In bebop you start in or end on those type of notes, and that makes your playing different to people who study music. Dexter loves going in our secure paddock area and playing on the agility equipment – he is actually really good at it!A. educator Lloyd Reese, Gordon joined Hampton in December 1940, two months before his 18th birthday.
