The Complete Blue Note Sixties Sessions is an attractive six-disc box set featuring all of
Dexter Gordon's '60s recordings for the label in chronological order. Such classic albums as Dexter Calling and
Go! were recorded during these years, and they are presented in their entirety, as are two complete sessions that have been previously unavailable on CD and several unreleased alternate takes. For serious
Gordon fans and musicologists, it's an essential collection, but its very thoroughness makes it less appealing to casual fans, who would be better off acquiring the individual albums. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
