Original copy of one of the most influential underground composers of the 20th century. His early experiments with long tones in 1957-58, fusing as they did interests in both twelve-tone music and Cagean conceptualism, led directly to the style known today as minimalism. Inspired by Young's long tones, Terry Riley began experimenting with loops, which led to his groundbreaking work In C, the premiere performance of which included Steve Reich. Young's relentless saxophone solos of the early '60s (he once beat Eric Dolphy for a sax chair) roared with the energy of rock and the pristine tuning of Indian ragas. His rule-based improvisations under the auspices of the Theatre of Eternal Music, though not heard publicly in decades, remain an icon of the psychedelic age, and were a direct influence on the Velvet Underground and artrock. Top rarity !!! Don't miss this one !!!

A further notice about the label
Shandar was a French record label active in the 1970's, specialised in Avantgarde music. Shandar released several significant early minimalism recordings, free jazz excursions, and musical experiments. The label was founded by the Maeght Foundation, a private art gallery in Saint-Paul de Vence, France, owned by art collectors Aimé and Marguerite Maeght.
Some of the records were issued with a few label color variations. The 10.000 series seem to be the first pressing: There were two logo designs, the "disc" and the "vertical" logo, shown at the top of the page. Starting from 1971/72, the serial number changed to the 83500 series, with reissue of previous records, eventually in different format and slight difference in the design. The most impressive (and sought-after) early minimalism records (La Monte Young and Charlemagne Palestine above all) have been released with this second serial number only.
