Dexter Gordon - "Go!" / Capitol Music Group; Blue Note; Jazz; By the time he recorded Go! In 1962, Dexter Gordon had already lived several lifetimes in jazz. He was among the first to adapt the language of bebop to the tenor saxophone in the 1940s, but after a decade in which personal troubles limited his output, he signed with Blue Note in 1961 and began a run of essential albums that marked a rebirth for the tenor giant. Featuring a quartet with Sonny Clark on piano, Butch Warren on bass, and Billy Higgins on drums, Go! #was a showcase of Gordon's limitless creativity on hard-swinging numbers like his great tune "Cheese-Cake," and a sure-footed version of "Love for Sale," as well as his peerless artistry on ballads as evidenced on stunning takes of the standards, "I Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry" and "Where Are You." Available on 180gram blue vinyl. Limited Edition. Indie Exclusive.

The Horace Silver Quintet -"Song For My Father (Cantiga Para Meu Pai)" Capitol Music Group; Blue Note; Jazz; A decade into his recording career, pianist Horace Silver made the album that would endure as the crown jewel of a catalog that boasts numerous hard-bop classics.

A year later, Silver entered Val Gelder Studio again with a new band, featuring Carmell Jones, Joe Henderson, Teddy Smith and Roger Humphries for a session that yielded four more cuts, including what would become his signature tune, "Song for My Father," a dedication to his father that was inspired by both his Cape Verdean heritage and the music Silver had heard on a recent trip to Brazil.

Released in 1964, Lee Morgan's magnum opus, The Sidewinder, was both a comeback and a coronation. The prodigious trumpeter debuted on Blue Note in 1956 at the age of 18, but personal problems in the early '60s forced him off the scene. His rebound turned out to be The Sidewinder, featuring tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, pianist Barry Harris, bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummer Billy Higgins. The album became his most significant commercial success, fueled by the irrepressible title track. Indie Exclusive LP on 180g blue vinyl. Limited Edition.
