Our Take

As I lounged back in my velvet chaise longue, sipping a gin and tonic, I decided to let the smooth sounds of Cedar Walton Trio's latest offering, "The Trio 2", wash over me. And let me tell you, it was like being wrapped in a warm, jazzy hug.

From the moment that piano keys were gently caressed by Walton's deft fingers, I knew I was in for a treat. The trio's chemistry was palpable, with each member complementing the other in a blissful musical dance. Bassist David Williams provided a solid foundation, while drummer Victor Lewis added a rhythmic punch that kept my toes tapping throughout.

The album's standout track, "Blues for Myself", was a masterclass in emotional catharsis, with Walton's piano expressing a depth of feeling that words could never convey. It was like listening to a sonnet written in musical form, with each note dripping with melancholy and beauty.

But it wasn't all introspection and soul-searching. Tracks like "Bolivia" brought a playful energy to the proceedings, with Walton's nimble fingers dancing across the keys like a musical sprite. It was impossible not to get swept up in the sheer joy and exuberance of the music.

In conclusion, "The Trio 2" is a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast looking to elevate their listening experience. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sink into a plush armchair, and let Cedar Walton Trio transport you to a world of musical enchantment. Cheers, darling!
