Dexter Gordon, Kenny Drew - Confirmation (Transcription)

Full transcription of Dexter Gordon's tenor saxophone solo and Kenny Drew's piano solo from "Confirmation" from Dexter Gordon’s 1955 album Daddy Plays the Horn. This album comes from a kind of “lost” period in Dexter Gordon’s career. He recorded it between two long prison sentences, which began in 1953 and lasted until his final release in 1959. On this album, you can really hear the difference in his playing compared to his late 40s bebop recordings and also the classic, well-known Blue Note albums of the early ’60s. These later recordings such as “Go!”, “A Swinging Affair” and “Our Man in Paris” reflect his mature style—for example, the distinctive ‘behind-the-beat’ phrasing that he is well known for today. On “Daddy Plays The Horn”, we can hear Dexter’s mature style beginning to emerge. I think that Confirmation is a great solo, but more than that it is an interesting insight into Dexter Gordon’s artistic journey. However, in my opinion, the real star of this recording is pianist Kenny Drew. I think that this whole album shows Kenny Drew at the peak of his powers. This solo in particular displays an incredibly deep and sophisticated melodic language—a textbook example of how to blend blues and bebop vocabulary. It’s one of my favourite solos of all time, on any instrument. Enjoy!
