| Dexter Gordon
(tenor sax) returned to the United States in the spring of 1969 to
create his first studio recordings in nearly a decade. Joined by James
Moody (tenor sax), Barry Harris (piano), Buster Williams (bass), and
Albert "Tootie" Heath (drums), Gordon actually documented enough
material for two long players -- Tower of Power (1969) and More Power!
(1969) -- both of which became primary staples of the artist's
voluminous Prestige catalog. An opening flourish from Heath on
"Montmartre" marks the commencement of the platter, leading into a
mid-tempo bop. Gordon and Moody swing steadily as they bounce ideas off
each other. |
