    "Sax" Gordon Beadle is one of the most exciting and in-demand performers carrying on the great tradition of American Rhythm & Blues Saxophone, both in studios and in clubs and concert halls worldwide. With astonishing ability and virtually unmatched energy, Gordon brings rocking sax workouts, swinging classics, gutbucket Blues, and deep ballads alive like no other player on the scene today.  Check out the BIOGRAPHY to read more about Gordon, WHAT'S NEW for the latest developments, and QUOTES/ARTICLES to see what the critics are saying.
    His own CDs for Rounder's Bullseye Blues & Jazz label (SAX GORDON - Have Horn Will Travel  1998 / You Knock Me Out 2000) established him as a leading force on the saxophone with an instantly recognizable sound, while also paying tribute to many of the heroes of Rhythm & Blues Sax.  Go to MERCHANDISE to order CDs and posters. You can also click on the CDs to read more about them and about Gordon's sax influences. (For sax players only! - check out Gordon's article for Saxophone Journal about recommended R&B sax recordings at the end of the QUOTES/ARTICLES page.)
    Gordon's been a featured soloist on both the tours and recordings of great artists like Duke Robillard, Matt "Guitar" Murphy, Jay McShann, Jimmy Witherspoon, Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson, and Roomful of Blues, and he's played on over 100 CDs, LPs and 45s, recording with many of the legendary performers of classic Blues, Jazz, and R&B, such as Jimmy McGriff, Pinetop Perkins, Rosco Gordon, Champion Jack Dupree, Billy Boy Arnold, Charles Brown, Jimmy McCracklin, and Jimmy "T99" Nelson.
