This is an album released by American pianist Keith Jarrett in 1978 on ECM, who gained fame in his twenties for producing historic masterpieces like 'Solo Concert' and 'Koln Concert.' The quartet lineup features prominent Nordic jazz musicians with whom he had already collaborated on three ECM albums: Jan Garbarek on soprano saxophone, Jan Christensen on drums, and Palle Danielsson on bass. As implied by the album title 'My Song,' which features a child's photograph on the artwork, the album primarily showcases serene and emotionally personal compositions by Keith Jarrett. However, there's an ethnic ambiance that permeates tracks A1, B2, and B3, perhaps reflecting the sensibilities of the Nordic musicians. Jan Christensen's drumming, in particular, carries a somewhat primitive quality.
