Recorded in 1976, trombonist John Gordon’s Step By Step is another rare cornerstone in the vast Strata-East catalog. Featuring label co-founders Charles Tolliver and Stanley Cowell alongside Roland Alexander (saxophone), Lisle Atkinson (bass), and Andrew Cyrille (drums), Step By Step is a deep-cut classic showcasing Gordon’s dynamic performance alongside the innovators of the 1970s. Now remastered from the original analog tapes, it will be available in digital format for the first time ever.
