barabara sounds sez:
Heavyweight summit meeting of two sax giants, laid down when the two crossed paths in Copenhagen in the sumer of 1973. It's a live session recorded at the Montmartre Jazzhus over a couple of evenings. There was another album (imaginatively called Vol. 2) from these dates, also on Steeplechase. Both of these guys had done their best work earlier in their careers, but this is still a great date.
dusty sez:
The first installment of a live recording made in Copenhagen in 1973 -- featuring Jackie leading a group that also includes Dexter Gordon on tenor and Kenny Drew on piano. Niels-Henning Ørsted Pederson plays bass and Alex Riel plays drums -- and the tracks are long and open, with a focus on solo space -- as on Gordon's own European sessions of the time. Song titles include Gordon's "All Clean", Sahib Shihab's "Rue De La Harpe", Drew's "Sunset", and "On The Trail".

this looks good, thx for sharing!
Barbara, I saw Dexter in Hollywood in 1953 - before, obviously, he departed for the open-armed French. Thanx for the treat. McLean has entertained me since the beginning of time.
thanks for the jackie mac. I have almost everything he put out but was not familiar with this one. looking forward to hearing it. nice blog - interesting selections.
