Listen to the essence of the tenor saxophone
A classic West Coast jazz album recorded in 1952.
The interplay between Wardell Gray and Dexter Gordon's tenor saxophones is truly impressive. In particular, on "The Chase," the two saxophones respond to each other, allowing you to enjoy the true joy of jazz improvisation. The backing members include musicians who are representative of West Coast jazz, adding depth to the performance.
