Dexter Gordon - Doin' Allright (Blue Note Classic)

Though he first recorded in the late-1940s, Dexter Gordon's Blue Note debut "Doin' Allright" was recorded and released in 1961. This album 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 Al Harewood on a set that presented bluesy hard bop originals like 'Society Red' and highlighted Gordon?'s stunning balladry on the standard 'You've Changed.'
