Spiritual power: the ability to save, or change someone's life through music, and/or the ability to overcome any obstacle with music as the guiding transformational force.

"Lavelle's tunes have an organic rightness about them, an economy of language that wastes nothing and brings each performance to a satisfying resolution, the end result of an open-hearted and inspired recording session."
Jeff Stockton, AllAboutJazz, April 2007

“Lavelle travels the line between life and death, again invoking powers greater than our own. His playing is absolutely fearless, and his ability to express himself unparalleled, with his rhythm section right beside him for the entire journey.”
Florence Wetzel
