On his ASCAP award-winning, debut recording, 'First Move,' composer/bassist/producer Larry Steen is joined by jazz luminaries Ernie Watts, Dave Weckl, Bill Cunliffe, Jeff Beal and Otmaro Ruiz, among others, in the creation of a rich milieu of 'world-jazz' textured with authentic West African, Brazilian, Caribbean and funk/R&B rhythms and the sophisticated harmonic sensibility of jazz and classical music. Jimmy Haslip (of the Yellowjackets) is the executive producer of the CD.
