The album is Young's debut for Perception Records which has since been reissued on CD by Castle Records. Perception Records went out of business shortly after the release of this recording, so it has never been widely available, and hence rarely heard in the 70s and 80s.
Lawrence of Newark represents Larry Young's first non-Blue Note recording as a leader post-Lifetime and is startling for its fresh look at how the organ is used in jazz and in improvisation.[1]
