1961 studio album by Dexter Gordon
Doin' Allright Dexter Gordon recorded in 1961 and released on the Blue Note label.[ 2]
Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars and stating "The title of this Blue Note set, Doin' Allright , fit perfectly at the time, for tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon was making the first of three successful comebacks. Largely neglected during the 1950s, Gordon's Blue Note recordings (of which this was the first) led to his "rediscovery".[ 3]
