Listen: Larry Young – “Khalid Of Space Part Two (Welcome)” [1973]

Posted on May 27, 2020 by Very Warm

Intensely psychedelic free jazz from Larry Young’s Lawrence of Newark album independently released in 1973 and not-so-secretly featuring Pharaoh Sanders on tenor saxophone. The whole record is great, but this song in particular blew me away. It just keeps getting better and … Continue reading →
