Midnight Waltz is an album by pianist Cedar Walton which was recorded in 2005 and released on the Japanese Venus label.[1]
Reception
AllMusic reviewed the album stating "During his long career, Cedar Walton has been one of hard bop's most lyrical pianists, as demonstrated on this 2005 trio session for the Japanese label Venus. No matter the tempo or approach, it is very easy to find oneself singing along with Walton's infectious melodies".[2]
