Repress from this 1964 album. Larry Young who like most organists originally sounded close to Jimmy Smith, took a big step away from the organ’s dominant influence on this adventurous and colorful set, which was his debut as a leader for Blue Note. Performing with a quartet also including tenor saxophonist Sam Rivers, guitarist Grant Green and drummer Elvin Jones, Young performs four of his originals plus Green’s “Plaza de Toros.” Other than the blues “Backup,” the music is fairly complex, grooving in its own fashion and showing that Young was quite aware of John Coltrane’s modal excursions.
