Among Friends is a live album by American jazz pianist Cedar Walton recorded in 1982 at Keystone Korner in San Francisco at the same series of concerts that produced Bobby Hutcherson's Farewell Keystone and first released on the Theresa label in 1989. As the album was the final release on the Theresa label so the 1992 Evidence CD received greater distribution.

Writing in the Chicago Tribune, Jack Fuller stated "It is a simple pleasure to listen to Cedar Walton play piano. He has all the basics, beginning with swing. There's a literate sense of humor, too, that shows up in the music he quotes. Here, with Billy Higgins on drums and Buster Williams on bass, he does a set of standards in the right place".Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars called it an "Excellent hard bop-based music from the talented pianist".
