■ Clifford Jordan
Born in Chicago in 1931, Clifford Jordan was a tenor saxophonist who began his jazz career at the young age of 16 in 1947.
Playing alongside local jazz greats such as Max Roach and Sonny Stitt, as well as R&B groups, he quickly built his reputation.
After relocating to New York in 1957, Jordan recorded three albums for Blue Note and became a key figure in the jazz scene, collaborating with Horace Silver,
J.J. Johnson, Kenny Dorham, and Max Roach, among others.

Following tours in Europe as a member of Charles Mingus and Eric Dolphy’s bands, Jordan transitioned into a leader role.
His 1972 album In the World, released on Strata-East, became a celebrated masterpiece of spiritual jazz.
Throughout his career, he released numerous works on various labels, and in his later years, he recorded four albums for Maple Shade Records, a label known
for its exceptional sound quality. Jordan passed away in 1993.
