Michael Lington one of Pop Instrumental's breakout stars, delivers beautiful, soulful interpretations of the next generation of the Great American Songbook. Rather than delivering a conventional smooth jazz collection, Mr. Lington turned to the great popular songs of his youth from artists like Stevie Wonder, Simon & Garfunkel, Carole King, Joni Mitchell and Sting. Why not five these songs the classic Hollywood treatment, with real strings and plenty of style? As the project developed, Michael realized that these pop classics suited his instrument of choice, the saxophone, perfectly. A Song For You became metaphor for his love affair with his instrument. Everything fell into place. The CD was produced by Randy Waldman, the brilliant pianist, composer, arranger and producer (Sinatra, Streisand, Bacharach), this sumptuous collection is poised for mass appeal breakout.
