4.0 out of 5 stars What's Here is Quite Good, January 2, 2003

This is a nice example of late-career Dexter, as this was recorded in 1981.

Dexter is on top of his game and spurred to action by a great supporting cast: Art Blakey on drums, Percy Heath on bass and Cedar Walton on guitar, with guest appearances by George Benson on guitar and Woody Shaw on trumpet.

If you like Dexter, you'll like this.

The only con is the short length, around 33 minutes

The flexibilityof jazzmaster Dexter Gordon makes an otherwise bland album noteworthy. The complete push to mellow swings of Gordon's sound keeps the listener intrested.
