  Dexter Gordon - Sax (Tenor), Main Performer
  Kenny Drew - Piano
  Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen - Bass

While in Europe, tenor-sax-great Dexter Gordon recorded many sessions with pianist Kenny Drew , bassist Niels Pedersen and drummer Albert 'Tootie' Heath . All are worth acquiring and this one is no exception. In addition to three of his originals (including the title tune), the quartet performs the old bop line 'Wee-Dot' and Horace Silver 's 'Strollin' while the ballad 'Old Folks' is taken as an emotional Gordon - Pedersen duet. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
