I Want to Hold Your Hand is an album by American jazz guitarist Grant Green featuring performances recorded in 1965 and released on the Blue Note label.[2] Featuring jazz arrangements of pop songs (including the title track by The Beatles), Green is supported by organist Larry Young and drummer Elvin Jones from his previous sessions, along with tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley.

The AllMusic review by Steve Huey states, "Even with all the straightforward pop overtones of much of the material, the quartet's playing is still very subtly advanced, both in its rhythmic interaction and the soloists' harmonic choices. Whether augmented by an extra voice or sticking to the basic trio format, the Green/Young/Jones team produced some of the most sophisticated organ/guitar combo music ever waxed, and I Want to Hold Your Hand is the loveliest of the bunch" - Wikipedia

Street of Dreams is an album by American jazz guitarist Grant Green featuring performances recorded in 1964 and released on the Blue Note label. The street signs featured on the cover photo are at an actual street corner in the North Beach neighborhood of San Francisco. Green is heard with organist Larry Young, vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson and drummer Elvin Jones.

The "Penguin Guide to Jazz" review by Richard Cook and Brian Morton stated: "Another exceptional record, though this time it is very much the group set-up that makes the difference. Though hooked into that easy overcooked guitar, organ, drums format, the personnel is such that one can reasonably expect a blend of power grooves and subtlety. Young is exceptional, very much on form, and Hutcherson makes an enormous contribution to a slower-paced and more meditative session than he'd normally favour" - Wikipedia

Jazztodon artist of the week: Larry Young! From our friends at @aaj :

A true innovator on the Hammond B3, Young took a different musical path than any of the other organ masters of his time. He eventually turned to a more complex, modal approach to the organ with sophisticated harmonic and chordal structures.

After a rhythm and blues apprenticeship, Young gained wider experience with Lou Donaldson; worked around New York and New Jersey with Kenny Dorham, Hank Mobley and Tommy Turrentine, among others; and then began heading his own units.He recorded his first sides for Prestige in 1960. He jumped over to the Blue Note label, and Young's premier album is thought to be “Unity," which came out in 1965.

Young played with Miles Davis in 1969, on the “Bitches Brew,” sessions, worked with John McLaughlin, and then Tony Williams' groundbreaking 'Lifetime' in the early '70's, where he was an important third of that band, one of the first jazz fusion groups.

His Majesty King Funk is a jazz album recorded in 1965 by Grant Green. It features Green with tenor saxophonist Harold Vick, organist Larry Young, drummer Ben Dixon and percussionist Candido.

John Heidt wrote about this album at Vintage Guitar magazine: “Green’s His Majesty King Funk is well-named. With five cuts of soul-drenched jazz, it’s easy to see why he’s the darling of the acid-jazz movement. He had an earthiness to his playing not found in lots of other jazz guitarists, and this set, with Larry Young on organ lets that shine through” - Wikipedia

The Tony Williams Lifetime - Emergency!

Major gear shift to this fusion milestone, featuring Williams (on drums, of course), John McLaughlin (guitar), and Larry Young (organ).

Heavily on the “rock" and/or free side of fusion, lots of tempo changes, lots of distortion on the guitar, as well as mic-saturating organ.

more japan cd stuff.

along that ongoing retail price explosion for vinyl records these import cds have sneaked onto the "reasonable & affordable" lists.

also, taming the addiction for more is hard.
