Our Take

The new album Something Different by the Dexter Gordon Quartet is like a breath of fresh air in a room filled with stale jazz clichés. Gordon, with his iconic tenor saxophone prowess, leads his quartet through a collection of tunes that truly live up to the album's title.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, you know you're in for a ride. Gordon's smooth, yet powerful playing weaves effortlessly in and out of the tight-knit group dynamic, showcasing his undeniable talent and experience in the jazz world.

The quartet's chemistry is palpable, with each member bringing their A-game to the table. Pianist Barry Harris shines on tracks like "Blue Gardenia" with his playful, yet poignant phrasing, while drummer Ben Riley keeps the groove locked in tight throughout the album.

The standout track has to be the Gordon-penned "Fried Bananas", a funky, irresistible number that will have you tapping your toes in no time. Gordon's soulful playing on this track is nothing short of pure magic, leaving you wanting more with each listen.

Overall, Something Different is a masterclass in jazz music, showcasing the timeless brilliance of Dexter Gordon and his quartet. It's a must-listen for any jazz fan looking for something truly special and, well, different. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
