AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow
Tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon was still in pretty good form at the time of this later recording. The veteran great is joined by an all-star rhythm section (pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Percy Heath and drummer Art Blakey) along with guest appearances from trumpeter Woody Shaw and guitarist George Benson. Although this boppish set is rather brief (just four songs totalling around 37 minutes), the quality of the solos is quite high.

Dexter Gordon - tenor saxophone
Cedar Walton - piano
Percy Heath - double bass
Art Blakey - drums
George Benson - guitar (#1,4)
