First time I’ve seen people dancing to post swing jazz. Of course Dexter can swing hard while playing his bebop lines. And if you can tap your feet to it, why not dance? Much appreciate seeing another Dex video surface. In all the bios of him they always reference his classic Blue Note and other studio albums. Classic as they are, I’ve always preferred his live albums where he has been able to stretch out on his solos, exploring idea after idea, never repeating himself or sounding boring. Thank you SteepleChase records! The legacy of his live albums and videos were well worth his stay in Europe all those years.
I’m not getting the story quite right but I once read somewhere that Charles Mingus used to tell his younger musicians to play a little ahead of the beat and a little sharp because the music they played would naturally settle into place by the time they matured as musicians.

Dexter's playing his ass off, kids are dancing and applause is slim to none.

I can't dance for bawling like a baby at that beautiful mother fucker. 😭
Dexter repeated himself all the time! It's why he has such a strong musical personality - Dex jazz vocab!
@@WorkinSteamin I meant in the sense that all of his choruses in a solo were unique and always contained new and (often times) smile inducing phrases.
Hell yes, Dexter and the band are straight up kicking it hard’ ! That filmmakers ’ close up’s’ that’s also worth the price of admission !!!
Amazing phrasing from Dexter, the king of quotes!!🔥🎷👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Master of the masters
Fantastic hearing LTD speaking danish - and what how cool was that people would dance to the blues!
the kids make me jealous dancing to this. in 1971 I was dancing to local bands playing pop music
that was a masterclass !
Love Danes in 70s (must be boomers and hope they still are dancing on Jazz) who can dance on bebop with the slightest provocation! Awsome!
finally, a sober Dexter Gordon footage.
well.....
Maybe you mean “Cali sober”
Denmark, 1971. Lars Aegerback, piano; Jens Jefsen, bass; Ole Streeberg, drums. [Please forgive me any misspelling of names!].
Really awesome rhythm section
They are Killin!
Those are some bad boys.
Wow. Amazing.
That rhythm section is swinging like, whaaaaaaaat?!? 🎷😸👍🏼
Nice use of thirds by Dexter. What happened to the film, it went blank towards the end? Thanks for posting though, a rare treat!
He seems to be a bit high, both in the way he speaks at the beginning, and also in the tuning if my ears don't deceive me
Just watch that film around midnight and you’ll understand

Better to be sharp than out of tune as someone once said! @@luiszuluaga6575
It's amazing how his sax playing seems less influenced by whatever drugs he's on that his speech. Some interesting brain science there.

La gente bailando??!!!!
52 years too late...but is it still to late for me to move to Sweden?
Great! Folk dancing to some swinging shit.

bref toi tu m as bien briefe pour Boss les procedures clavier etc Par contre les questions que tu me posais ont a voir avec les changements de clef :bass treble mais sur partition c les memes sur les samplers mais je nai pas les mots pour le dire Dexter n a pas besoin de mots il fait trainer les notes du sax a la limite des fausses notes en soufflant assez fort pour generer du pleurage a l enregistrement que les samplers peuvent traduire en bass# b treble Dexter est un Malien Americain pour qui tout za est un jeu d enfant les chieurs senegalais n entravent rien a l affaire (c du fare pas du blah blah) et comme za on peut sauter au dessus de la masse des rockers et se la raconter avec les Nazes de la spaciale l aero tranquile !
Pour toi c n est pas non plus un probleme tu connais la Bretecher entre Mingus et Mangas

aside from the great music, seeing young people dancing to jazz causes me to wonder what happened to our culture
