Wonderful performance by a jazz master
by DarlinLil on 6/23/11Fowler Museum UCLA - Los AngelesCedar Walton, a giant of jazz, performed two sets, one solo and one with Tony Dumas, his usual bassist. It was a thrill to hear his beautiful arrangements and harmonies. A highlight was a chat with John Clayton, who managed to get Cedar to illuminate his life and influences. In the audience were many jazz greats who came out to honor their friend. All in all, a great evening in a nice venue.
