No More Tears (For Lady Day) is an album by jazz pianist Mal Waldron recorded in West Germany and released on the Dutch Timeless label.

Contents

Reception

The Allmusic review by Steve Loewy awarded the album 4 stars stating "The pianist is in a somber mood, perhaps because of the theme, though his performance is up to his usually high standards... The delightful ambience of the trio results in a laid-back atmosphere that soothes and calms. A fine antidote to a stressful world and a lovely tribute to Lady Day".
