Landslide is comprised of previously unreleased mateiral from three separate
Dexter Gordon-led sessions between May 1961 and June 1962. The title track is a
Dexter Calling... outtake featuring pianist Kenny Drew, bassist Paul Chambers
and drummer Philly Joe Jones; it was later added to the CD version of Dexter
Calling... as a bonus track. Three songs -- "Love Locked Out," "You Said It,"
"Serenade in Blue" -- are from May of 1962 and feature trumpeter Tommy
Turrentine, pianist Sir Charles Thompson, bassist Al Lucas and drummer Willie
Bobo. The remaining three songs -- "Blue Gardenia," "Six Bits Jones," "Second
Balcony Jump" -- were recorded in June of 1962 and feature trumpeter Dave Burns,
pianist Sonny Clark, bassist Ron Carter and drummer Philly Joe Jones. All three
sessions hold together fairly well, and although nothing on the record qualifies
as a masterpiece, nothing is bad, either. In comparison to the released
sessions, this material may pale somewhat, but it remains first-rate hard bop
and is recommended to Gordon collectors.
