Unity (Larry Young Album)
Unity is an album by jazz organist Larry Young, released on the Blue Note label. While not free jazz, the album features innovative experimentation. The title was chosen by Young because "although everybody on the date was very much an individualist, they were all in the same frame of mood. It was evident from the start that everything was fitting together."
The album is Young's second for Blue Note records, following on from Into Somethin'. Three of the six tracks were composed by Woody Shaw; "Zoltan", "The Moontrane", dedicated to Coltrane, and "Beyond All Limits". "If" is a Joe Henderson composition, "Monk's Dream" is by Thelonious Monk and "Softly, As in a Morning Sunrise" is a Hammerstein & Romberg composition.
