These days, British bassist Graham Collier is often considered more as a composer/arranger/bandleader, especially with archival issues like Hoarded Dreams (Cuneiform, 2007) and Workpoints (Cuneiform, 2005) placing emphasis on large ensemble work (though one disc of Workpoints featured a sextet).

Per quest'inedito di Graham Collier non è esagerato parlare di tesoro ritrovato. Nel 1983 il compositore e bandleader inglese ebbe carta bianca per presentare al festival di Bracknell una sua composizione e scegliere l'organico più adeguato per eseguirla.
