La Monte Young - Draw A Straight Line And Follow It




Given the nature of the release it is difficult to be certain but I think that this covers four decades of La Monte Young's ideas. Clearly, this is not just the man himself but who else is here is lost to me. There are ragas and drones but not the fever dreams of the Theatre Of Eternal Music. That is certainly not a criticism ... this contains some of the most beautiful music I have heard. Dive in and draw your own lines.

Apparently, there is a second volume but I've never seen it ... if some kind soul could help me out I'd appreciate it!
