A Swingin' Affair finds tenor sax legend Dexter Gordon at his most expressive and inventive, recorded in the summer of 1962 alongside the stellar group that made his acclaimed album "Go." Backed by Sonny Clark on piano, Butch Warren on bass, and Billy Higgins on drums, Gordon delivers vibrant, swinging performances that showcase the ensemble's undeniable chemistry and tight rhythm.
This 2019 import pressing from Jazz Images spotlights memorable solos and standout moments, from Sonny Clark's elegant piano work to the latin-tinged energy of "Soy Califa." With its dynamic improvisation and timeless jazz sound, A Swingin' Affair is an essential listen for fans of classic Blue Note-era jazz and Dexter Gordon's remarkable artistry.
