What a GREAT CD!!
author: Addie
When ever I am feeling low and want to bring up my spirits I turn to music. Well, Inifinite Possibilities is the CD I turn to at such times.
From the first note to the last it sends a warm feeling through my body and I immediately feel calm, cool, and collected.
Having the sincere pleasure to know Beavin and his beautiful family makes listening to his CD even more rewarding.
I know that ever note that Beavin plays is straight from his heart and I also know that his music career will just get better and grow through the years. Thank you Beavin for the music and being such a beautiful soul.
Peace to you and yours...

If I had to use two words to describe this album, they would be \"complete\" and \"relevant.\" Lawrence\'s music, in my opinion, embodies the complete experience of good jazz. He is (as are all the participating musicians) a truly accomplished technician at his craft. Any music theorist would be delighted to pick apart his remarkably clever composition technique and improvisations on Roland and After FEMA. However, he is not merely intellectually precise. Whereas many modern independent and/or jazz artists tend to get lost in their own headiness, turning their finished product into a kind of Whitman-esque \"Song of Myself,\" Lawrence and his fellow musicians keep the listener (or at least kept me) locked into the entire process of hearing the music unfold itself. Even after replaying the album several times, I did not ever feel left out, and furthermore, the journey never got old because I felt engaged on so many different levels: The gripping emotional depth of Sheryl\'s Great Adore nearly brought tears to my eyes every time I heard it (and it is not an easy task to bring tears to my eyes); I was nearly entranced by the haunting royal-spiritualism of First There Was a Queen; and the combination of the light, soothing vocals on Harlem Shaman, and Lawrence\'s deep, rich saxophone voice made for a truly ethereal experience. In short, I think this is a gorgeously done album, and highly recommended to anyone looking for a truly worthwhile musical experience.
