I'm now listening to Disc 2 from Bobby Hutcherson's Mosaic Select set:

Have been spinning that set myself over the last week or so. Great set !

Currently spinning Jimmy Heath Orchestra 'Really Big !'  (OJC CD). BillF's old disk lives on, lovely stuff. On drums - Albert Heath (RIP).

Cedar Walton has long been among my very favorite jazz pianists. I have almost all of his recordings as both leader and sideman.

His playing on this Ettta Jones recording  may well be the very best playing I have heard by Cedar Walton. The first track is by the trio and is outstanding. Cedar also gets a lot of solo space on all the vocal tracks and , once again, is in tip top form. His comping behind Etta Jones is also wonderful. 

I should also say that Jones vocal are damn good too.

Don't sleep on this album if you are a Cedar Walton fan. This is the best jazz album I have heard in a long time!

Thanks for the heads-up on this, Peter.  Walton is one of my favorite pianists too. 

I'll check it out!  :tup
