Cedar Walton w George Coleman - Eastern Rebellion 1977
MP3 @ 256-320 | 49 MB | Covers included
Genre: Jazz

Unfortunately, Amazon did not have it listed anywhere and thus it was denied inclusion. I have not seen this CD available anywhere for several years, and I had to jump through hoops, backwards, to acquire a copy, five years back, from a great store in Eugene, Oregon. How great to see it available to a wider audience again. CONGRATULATIONS !!! Amazon and whoever decided to reissue it!!! The opening track, "Bolivia," shows off some great stick work on the cymbals by the most recorded drummer in jazz history, Billy Higgins, and just smokes, and George Coleman's tenor work on "Naima" would have done Coltrane proud. Cedar's homage to the late great Joe Henderson, "Mode For Joe," sizzles. and the rest of the album, similarly excellent, surpasses anything done by the group afterwards, although subsequent groups worked with the handicap, not to belittle Bob Berg and Ralph Moore, of not having George Coleman. The recording quality, at least on the CD that I acquired 5 years ago, is superb, and I think it is fantastic to see such fine work available again.
