Alan Broadbent

Every Time I Think Of You

Broadbent says the album "combines my playing and my writing, especially with the most expressive of instruments, the string orchestra," that he feels works like a collective fourth person on the disc. "Usually the strings sweeten songs with the chords playing in the background," he says. "But I like using the strings expressively like how Stan Getz used them on his early '60s album Focus."
