Gettin' Around is an album by American jazz saxophonist Dexter Gordon recorded over two days in May 1965 and released by Blue Note the following year.[2] The CD reissue added two bonus tracks from the same session.

Reception

The review in Billboard magazine in 1966 called Gordon's playing "cool and hot", especially praising his improvisations on "Heartaches". The support of the rhythm section was said to be "A-1 all the way".[3]

The AllMusic review by Michael G. Nastos was less enthusiastic stated: "While this is not Gordon's ultimate hard bop date, it is reflective of his cooling out in Europe, adopting a tonal emphasis more under the surface than in your face. It's not essential, but quite enjoyable, and does mark a turning point in his illustrious career."[4]
