Pianist Cedar Walton heads a medium-size group on this 1986 Delos CD, a rhythm section with bassist Ron Carter and drummer Billy Higgins plus a five piece horn section: trumpeter Don Sickler, altoist Kenny Garrett, the obscure tenor Lou Orensteen, baritonist Charles Davis and trombonist Steve Turre. Unfortunately the horns mostly stick to ensemblework (except for an extended version of Benny Golson's "Out of the Past") but Walton and his trio are in top form on such numbers as Bud Powell's "Halluncinations," a lengthy rendition of Cole Porter's "So in Love," Nellie Lutcher's "He's a Real Gone Guy" and the leader's "Something in Common." ~ Scott Yanow  http://www.allmusic.com/album/cedar-walton-plays-mw0000188877

Personnel: Cedar Walton (piano); Kenny Garrett (alto saxophone); Charles Davis (baritone saxophone); Steve Turre (trombone); Don Sickler (trumpet); Ron Carter (bass); Billy Higgins (drums).
