Description:

Zum ersten Mal verÃ¶ffentlicht, enthÃ¤lt das Album einen Live-Auftritt welcher wÃ¤hrend der legendÃ¤ren Zeit der Kopenhagener Jazz Geschichte und im nicht minder legendÃ¤ren und vor kurzem geschlossenen Montmartre aufgenommen wurde. HÃ¶rt man dieses Album, kehrt man durch Dexter Gordons enorme Aura zurÃ¼ck zur AtmosphÃ¤re und dem Sound einer besonderen Nacht im Jazzhus Montmartre der 1960er Jahre. Dexters Ankunft in Kopenhagen hatte einen enormen Einfluss, der die dÃ¤nische Jazzszene nachhaltig beeindruckte. Er war hÃ¼bsch und gut gekleidet, sein Spiel war hervorragend, mit einem riesigen Klang; Seine EinfÃ¼hrungen und sein KÃ¶nnen waren einzigartig und faszinierend. DarÃ¼ber hinaus hielt Dexter die dÃ¤nische MentalitÃ¤t fÃ¼r geeignet, Jazz zu spielen, fÃ¼hlen und zu genieÃ?en. â??Es war immer daâ??, erinnert sich Alex Riel. â??Es fÃ¼hlte sich nicht so an, als wÃ¼rde man zur Arbeit zu gehen, obwohl wir im Sommer 1964 jeden Abend im Juni, Juli und August spielten. Dexter und Tete waren nur fÃ¼r die Musik da, und Niels-Henning und ich auch. Es ist so offensichtlich, wenn ich die Musik heute hÃ¶re. Dexter liebte es, in Montmartre zu sein. " -

Listening to this album takes you back to the atmosphere and sound of Jazzhus Montmartre on a random night in the 1960s, engulfing you in Dexter Gordon's enormous aura. Dexter's arrival in Copenhagen had a tremendous impact that left a lasting impression on the Danish jazz scene. He was handsome and well-dressed. His playing was superb, with a giant sound; his introductions and showmanship were unique and captivating. In addition, Dexter felt the Danish mentality was well-suited for playing and enjoying jazz. "It was always there", Alex Riel remembers "It wasn't a case of going to work, even though we played every, single night in June, July and August during the summer of 1964. Dexter and Tete were there solely for the music, and so were Niels-Henning and I. It is so obvious when I hear the music today. Dexter loved being in Montmartre. He often stayed and jammed with the night shift when it took over, playing on till early morning. I clearly remember us standing outside Montmartre one bright summer morning when the milkman came by. In those days the milkman drove around, delivering bottles of milk to the front doors of apartment buildings in Copenhagen. He brought his young daughter along to lend a hand, and it was hard not to notice her ample bosom beneath her thin T-shirt. Dexter took one look, then said, "Really (that's what he called me), can she just walk around town and there's no one who...? You could never do that in New York... I'm staying right here!' And Dexter ended up owning Copenhagen!"

Recorded at Montmartre Copenhagen, July 1964.
