"The overlooked pianist/composer Cedar Walton (1934-2013) recorded this marvelous debut album with his band Eastern Rebellion in New York City on December 10, 1975. The currently hard-to-find Eastern Rebellion contains some inventive playing from every member of the quartet and this inspired modern jazz session is a fitting memorial to Cedar Walton. With Walton (piano) were George Coleman (tenor sax), Sam Jones (bass) and Billy Higgins (drums) playing four band originals and one John Coltrane tune. Highlights include Walton's 10-minute 'Bolivia' and 'Mode For Joe' plus a wonderful version of John Coltrane's 'Naima'. Cedar might be one of the most under-appreciated figures in jazz."
