Dexter Gordon - Our Man in Paris - Blue Note Classic LP

Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series, 180g LP, All-Analog

Dexter Gordon's 1963 album Our Man in Paris was his first dispatch from Europe and is often considered the last true bebop album. In May 1963 Gordon assembled a quartet with fellow expats Bud Powell on piano and Kenny Clarke on drums, plus French bassist Pierre Michelot, and headed into CBS Studios in Paris to cut this all-time classic. The set runs through well-known standards and bebop mainstays including "Scrapple from the Apple," "A Night in Tunisia," "Willow Weep for Me," and "Stairway to the Stars."
