Dexter Blows Hot and Cool  Dexter Gordon  Dootone Records  This is high art.   The photographer is Hermann Leonard who shot most jazz legends beginning in the 1940’s. I met him once in the eighties. Nice guy. A lot of his photos include the curling smoke of a musician’s cigarette. This is a famous shot of Dexter Gordon on the rare Dootone label.  A beautiful cover for a beautiful jazz record.
