This is a great album from Dexter Gordon's Denmark period, swinging and driving as always. "Antabus" is a real cooker where everyone really tears it up. I think this time period brought out some of Dexter's best, and not long after this he was "rediscovered" upon returning to the U.S. If you want to hear Dexter Gordon swinging in his prime, check this out.
