Before Larry Young, the Hammond B3 organ tradition was firmly rooted in soul jazz, but Young introduced a new perspective on the instrument by placing it in an adventurous post-bop context. His 1965 masterpiece “Unity” scores with a cast of modern jazz masters: Woody Shaw on trumpet, Joe Henderson on saxophone and Elvin Jones on drums.
