Album Notes & Community Reviews

The legendary Canadian songwriter presents an unusually lavish, heavily arranged collection recorded entirely live in the studio with a 92-piece symphony orchestra and big band. The lush, cinematic orchestrations provide a surprisingly traditional, grand backdrop for his environmental activism and deeply romantic balladry.
