2025.10.27 Brian Charette on Larry Young - 3 of 3
If you want to change the game, first you need to master the game. Coming up in Newark in the fifties was the exact right place and time for Larry Young to learn the idiom of the Hammond B-3 organ, and he learned his lessons well. His early records embody the soul-jazz organ trio sound made popular by Jimmy Smith. But as the sound of the sixties emerged, Larry Young (also known by his Muslim name, Khalid Yasin Abdul Aziz) was reaching for something more. His journey, including hours of conversation and jam sessions with spiritual avatar John Coltrane, brought ab...

Blue Note Records - S01E20
Blue Note Records is the label synonymous with the best in jazz since 1939, and from its unique mystique around its sound and up and down history, we’ll learn how Blue Note is still relevant to jazz and non-jazz fans today. We’ll talk with veteran Blue Note man Michael Cuscuna about the label’s humble beginnings in a New York apartment, the rise of the so-called Blue Note sound in the 1950s, how commercial success ironically led to Blue Note’s undoing in the 1960s, and explore how the photography of Blue Note co-founder Francis Wolff shaped the Blue Not...
