Dexter Gordon Quartet 'San Francisco '82" Hi Hat cd

Dexter Gordon on tenor saxophone, Kirk Lightsey on piano, David Eubanks on bass, and Eddie Gladden on drums. Keystone Korner, December 1982

There are so many good live Dexter recordings. This is among them, good sound quality and Dexter is energetic.

 

Oh yes. Maybe it is a bit short and if I remember right, there is an unacompanied ad lib solo where he quotes some Chrismas Songs. And than there is some radio commercial. 

In 1983 I had heard Dexter the last times. Some performances were very fine, others not so. 

Kirk Lightsey lives in Paris now and is playing much in Europe. Especially in Austria too. Had a long talk with him after a concert.

Is Kirk still playing? He turns 88 in two weeks, so I would not be shocked to hear he has stopped playing.

No commercial on this edition. And there are three seasonal songs, one Dexter alone, one as a medley to conclude the recording.
