Cal Tjader

Wow. Cal Tjader. I have one of his earliest recordings with Dave
Brubeck's Octet. He played drums. It was before he taught himself to
play the vibes and the piano. I have several of his recordings with
George Shearing, and later when he had his own group. Pretty neat
musician. Wow. I love his latin/cuban rhythms. (Funny word "rhythms")

Dave
