Description:
Contemporary jazz bassist Geral Veasley makes no claim to be a master chess player, but there are certain unmistakable parallels between his line of work and the small-scale war game that has challenged great minds for centuries. Like chess, Veasley sees music as a pursuit that involves a combination of strategy, quick thinking and even a bit of blind faith. That same combination of challenges, opportunities and win-win Scenario is at the heart of YOUR MOVE. The album is the latest - and perhaps the most innovative and audacious - maneuver in the game that Veasley has been playing since his early days as an up-and-coming musician in his native Philadelphia. Any good game involves more than one player, and Veasley has a couple collaborators on hand that make YOUR MOVE an intriguing gambit. Guitarist Chuck Loeb steps in as a formidable session playyer/producer and author or co-author of several tracks. Saxophonist and longtime Veasley band member Chris Farr also shares a few song credits. Drummer Josh Dion crafts a rock solid backbeat on another track.
