1976 studio album by Al Cohn, Dexter Gordon
True Blue jazz album by saxophonist Dexter Gordon and saxophonist Al Cohn , recorded in 1976 for Xanadu Records .[1] [2]
Reception [ edit ] Allmusic awarded the album 3½ stars with its review by Michael G. Nastos stating, "True Blue is led in title under the auspices of Dexter Gordon as a welcome home party conducted by Don Schlitten for the expatriate tenor saxophonist in 1976. Essentially a jam session, this very talented septet features a two tenor-two trumpet front line, utilized to emphasize the soloing strength of the horns, not necessarily in joyous shouts or big-band like unison outbursts.".[3]
