  The Walter Norris Documentary | From Another Star
Walter’s message is that success is measured by how far you advance your art form during your lifetime in relation to history, science, philosophy, religion, that kind of thing.
Chuck Dodson’s film about Walter Norris seeks to demonstrate the greatness of this unique artist who, as many leading critics have said, is in the process of making a historical contribution to the art of music.
Though Norris was probably forty years older, he generated so much energy that it caused the younger man to look tired.

On this CD Norris gives a broad overview of his mastery as a composer, arranger and performer and his command of music: rhythm, harmony and melody.

 The Walter Norris Documentary | From Another Star
And those recent recordings of his, of Walter’s, that I’ve heard*, he’s doing things like that, except, of course, they are so far out, I mean, Hines would have been astonished.
In fact, I think in a way what he has done is he has taken Tatum’s playing and skill and virtuosity and moved it up, way up, to another degree.
Some were live recordings made in recent performances, and also the entire obscure From Another Star album, Walter’s last studio recording (1998).

Review: If you enjoy Joe Henderson and appreciate a superb piano technician, this is the recording for you.
Walter Norris, who I stumbled upon while searching out Joe Henderson material, has a light feathery touch, playing sure notes among pauses that's a true delight.

Walter Norris : Love Every Moment - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
A masterful West Coast jazz pianist who has lived in Berlin since 1977, Walter Norris made a rare visit back to the U.S. in 1992, recording this excellent trio set with bassist Putter Smith and drummer Larance Marable.
The well-rounded program includes five older pieces (including such rarely played numbers as Lester Young's "Blue Lester" and Teddy Wilson's "Sunny Morning"), three Norris originals, and trumpeter Steve Huffsteter's "4 Miles." Norris' playing and chord voicings are quite original (he continued to evolve while overseas) and his post-bop solos are consistently colorful and unpredictable.
