AllMusic

Song for Everyone is an album by Indian violinist L. Shankar recorded in September 1984 and released on ECM the following year. The quartet features saxophonist Jan Garbarek and percussionists Zakir Hussain and Trilok Gurtu.

Reception

AllMusic's Richard S. Ginell called the album "a brighter, more outgoing record than its predecessor Vision, veering between Western acoustic and electric grooves and the complex beats churned out by the tabla. Jan Garbarek again shines beams of light on soprano and tenor, engaging Shankar's ten-string double-necked electric violin in some complex interplay on the title track."
