Youniverse is an album by American jazz saxophonist Rob Brown recorded in 1992 and released on the Riti label, operated by free jazz musician and composer Joe Morris. It features a trio with Morris on guitar and Whit Dickey on drums playing six Brown compositions and two collective improvisations.[1] The same lineup would be named Trio Ahxoloxha when they released the album Prophet Moon a decade later under the leadership of Dickey.[2]
