"We had the opportuniy to see Larry perform at Idllywild Jazz Festival. We rushed and bought Spiritual Conversations!" -Tom & Sylvia Winters, Las Vegas, NV "Superb!! What a CD!!" - T.H., Santa Monica, CA "I'm amazed how Larry is able to capture the essence of a mood within the first couple of bars in a tune and draws you in. He's brought in some top notch players. Some of the funky songs had my head noddin' right from the start, and others that had more of a 'night groove' brought out a satisfied sigh...all of them had me turning up my cd player. His ability to blend in the spiritual made him a natural choice for ads on our 'Sacred & Smooth' show on Sunday mornings." -Dave DeAndrea, Program Director, Smooth Jazz 105.9 KYSJ Visit Larry Washington @ : http://www.Beatworkzltdusa.com
