Dexter Gordon

Dexter Gordon (American tenor saxophonist) emerged in the 1940s, helping shape bebop and hard bop with a big, lyrical tone and laid-back phrasing. After early work with Lionel Hampton and others, he hit a Blue Note stride in the 1960s and spent about 15 years in Europe, based in Paris and Copenhagen. He earned an Academy Award nomination for Round Midnight (1986) and died on April 25, 1990.
