Blowing In from Chicago is a studio album by the American jazz saxophonists Clifford Jordan and John Gilmore.

[1][2] The recording was made on March 3, 1957 and the quintet assembled for the session features rhythm section Horace Silver, Curly Russell and Art Blakey.

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states, "Clifford Jordan's first date as a leader actually found him sharing a heated jam session with fellow tenor John Gilmore.

[8] The editors of MusicHound Jazz awarded the album a full five stars, calling it "a stunner" and "a fine hard-bop date for all involved," and noting that Gilmore "locks horns brilliantly with Jordan's beefy style, without turning it into an out-and-out blowing session brawl.

"[5] A reviewer for Billboard stated that Jordan and Gilmore "play with 'hard' sound and sharply rhythmic attack to good results," and commented: "Valuable solo content and general vitality of this blowing session should please jazz buyers.
