The performance on this new DVD showcases Dexter Gordon’s many talents in an intimate quartet setting at San Francisco’s Maintenance Shop; a club that also witnessed one of the last filmed performances by pianist Bill Evans. Dexter is heard on three extended tunes, the standards “On Green Dolphin Street” and “Polka Dots and Moonbeams” and a song by Donald Byrd, entitled “Tanya”, which Gordon first recorded with the trumpeter himself for the quintet album “One Flight Up” in 1964.
