Alternate takes of Blues For Myself, Cedar Walton”s piano solo that made history. A necessary complement.

Red Records record a piano solo album in 1985, Blues For Myself, a work that has even been mentioned in the Penguin Guide To Jazz by Richard Cook and Brian Morton, in which the pianist alternates the execution of his own compositions with some famous standards, and decided today to extract the alternate takes of some of those tracks and give to the press this More Blues For Myself. It is the worthy conclusion of a work that will reconcile the fans with some of the characteristics that make jazz – a term that some don’t want to use anymore, but this is another story yet to be told – a fascinating and pleasantly charming world.
