Walton grew up in Dallas, Texas. After attending the University of Denver, Walton moved to New York in 1955. After a two year stint in the army in which he performed in a jazz ensemble, he joined Kenny Dorham's band. By the late 1950s Walton was playing with J. J. Johnson, the Art Farmer/Benny Golson Jazztet, and Gigi Gryce, and by 1959 he recorded on John Coltrane's seminal album Giant Steps.
In the early 1960s, he joined Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers as a pianist-arranger for 3 years, where he played with Wayne Shorter and Freddie Hubbard. He left the Messengers in 1964 and by the late 1960s was part of the house rhythm section at Prestige Records, where in addition to releasing his own recordings, he recorded with Sonny Criss, Pat Martino, Eric Kloss, and Charles McPherson.
During the mid-1970s, Walton led the funk group Mobius. He has also recorded with Abbey Lincoln, Lee Morgan, and led the band Eastern Rebellion. He continues to lead his own groups and freelance.
"Bolivia" is perhaps Walton's best known composition, while one of his oldest is "Fantasy in D", recorded under the title "Ugetsu" by Art Blakey in 1963.
Perfidia
written by Alberto Dominguez
English lyrics by Milton Leeds
Recorded and mixed by Shawn Murphy
at Skywalker Ranch, CA
Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo
Tanto que ya no puedo sollozar
Solo temblando de ansiedad estoy
Todos me miran y se van
To you
My heart cries out "Perfidia"
For I find you, the love of my life
In somebody else's arms
Your eyes are echoing "Perfidia"
Forgetful of the promise of love
You're sharing another's charms
With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now
I find my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh
Perfidia's won
Goodbye
With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now
I find my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh
Perfidia's won
Goodbye
Goodbye
Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo
Tanto que ya no puedo sollozar
Solo temblando de ansiedad estoy
Todos me miran y se van
Mujer, si puedes tu con Dios hablar
Preguntale si yo alguna vez
Te he dejado de adorar
Y al mar espejo de mi corazon
Las veces que me ha visto llorar
La perfidia de tu amor
Te he buscado por dondequiera que yo voy
Y no te puedo hallar
Para que quiero tus besos
Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar?
Y tu quien sabe por donde andaras
Quien sabe que aventura tendras
Que lejos estas de mi
Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo
Tanto que ya no puedo sollozar
Solo temblando de ansiedad estoy
Todos me miran y se van
To you
My heart cries out "Perfidia"
For I find you, the love of my life
In somebody else's arms
Your eyes are echoing "Perfidia"
Forgetful of the promise of love
You're sharing another's charms
With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now
I find my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh
Perfidia's won
Goodbye
With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now
I find my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh
Perfidia's won
Goodbye
Goodbye
