“This album was originally recorded in 1973, when the Canadian expat seemed equally at home in free-improv or the kind of backdrops Gil Evans wrote for Miles Davis in the 1950s and early 1960s. Consequently, Song for Someone curiously unites the cream of Britain’s postbop players of the 1970s.” – John Fordham/The Guardian .
