An excellent bop-based soloist who recorded rewarding sets for <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Enja%22">Enja</a>, Duško Gojković (aka Dusko Goykovich) played in Yugoslavia and Germany before visiting the U.S. for the first time with Marshall Brown's International Youth Band (playing at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival). Gojković attended Berklee (1961-1963) and played with the orchestras of <a href="spotify:artist:6T4kUHIlszpj944ZXR3yNw">Maynard Ferguson</a> (1963-1964) and <a href="spotify:artist:2KSxJY1WxGGVYSmoM0N54P">Woody Herman</a> (1964-1966) before deciding to return to Germany, leading a group with <a href="spotify:artist:7F7YPvj6WnpHI5QwrN5Wxl">Sal Nistico</a> (1966). He was with the Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland Big Band (1968-1973) and had a 12-piece band with <a href="spotify:artist:1JrZuQYlOzhNj1nvlB0Yys">Slide Hampton</a> (1974-1975). <a href="spotify:artist:0kbYTNQb4Pb1rPbbaF0pT4">Miles Davis</a> was his main influence, but Gojković (who was quite active during the '80s and '90s in Europe) had his own extroverted style. He continued to record well into the 2010s, releasing Sketches of Yugoslavia on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Enja%22">Enja</a> in 2019, a few years before his death in Munich, Germany on April 5, 2023; he was 91. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
