Montmartre is not that tune, I think, there's a mistake in the title.

Un des meilleurs

I’ve got to watch out, I have an addiction to dexter! I might slip into listening to him for months on end!

Was this released on a live album?

I saw Dex in the late seventies at a tiny jazz club in Gothenburg, a Swedish city close to Kopenhagen, and he totally remade his concert into becoming a fun social game. Whenever he threw in a theme stolen from popular music, we (the audience) had to clap hands or shout to signal that we did recognize the sample. If we failed to detect a snatched phrase he kept repeating it like a broken record until we gave the signal. For each loop round, he made it easier to hear, gradually stripping off ornamentation and groove until the rhythm got close to a rigid marching drum. I remember that I found it amazing that the guy could still play while smiling that broadly :-)

A giant of jazz

Great. I think it's a contrafact on "Dancing in the Dark."

Dexter blows so smooth, yeah!

no one before or today does this better! a late bop mode mixed with dex personality its once in universe never again Olav bøe norway

One the the great masters at work!...what a tone...what an inspiration!x

Who are the two lame brains that voted thumbs down?

Did everybody catch Ben Webster in the audience?

Dexter was among two three jazzmusicians afterr ww 2 that found the right notes, the others searched for them all their lives, with little sucess Olav bøe norway

first

First thing he grabs is his beer. He's da man!
