{"product_id":"one-flight-up","title":"One Flight Up","description":"Again one wonders: where would jazz have gone without the advent of the LP? Certainly not down the path that brought us the 18-minute \"Tanya,\" which originally took up the entire first side of Dexter Gordon's second expatriate album for Blue Note in 1964. Based in Copenhagen since 1962, Gordon assembled a group in Paris for this session, including fellow Americans-abroad Kenny Drew, Donald Byrd and Art Taylor. It's Byrd who contributes \"Tanya,\" a cross-pollination of Blue Note smolder and then-the-rage modal perspective.\u003cbr\u003eGordon takes his time stretching out over the forms, which are particularly drawn out to begin with. Drew's \"Coppin' the Haven\" is a more concise continuation of the effort to reconcile the modal approach with the use of more bop-like changes. \"Darn That Dream,\" a ballad feature for the leader, is done as a quartet, as is the one Gordon composition \"Kong Neptune,\" a track not released on the original LP. A particularly interesting aspect of this disc is the chance to hear bassist Niels--Henning Orsted Pedersen making one of his earliest recorded appearances.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51404454363423,"sku":"602435148076","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/e2544e522a663937811783f4f74fb0da_17058880-4972-4b14-b1d3-baa9cb803fd4.jpg?v=1777569498","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/one-flight-up","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
