In his early days, Cal worked with Paul Horn, Lonnie Hewitt and Willie Bobo often. The West Coast was his stomping grounds. Later he worked often with the Palmieri Brothers and the King of Mambo, Tito Puente. Cal brought the Afro-Caribbean genre into the jazz mainstream.
Cornelius Carr unhuh, also he worked with Dave Brubeck and recorded( I have it) Avery long piece “At A Perfume Counter”, a really beautiful work. It is one side of an LP.
Another pretender whanna be Cornelius, it was not Cal who brought Afro Caribbean genre into Jazz, dummy, It was Dizzie Gillespie when he brought Cuban Chano Pozo '' Best Conga Drummer into his band on the recommendation of Mario Bauza, into his band first time ever a Conga drummer played in any American Jazz Band, Chano Pozo also played w Charlie Parker. Eat that Cornelius""". Also Cal took Mongo and Willie Bobo from the band of Tito Puente, to San Francisco to played w him. Free lesson.
YOU ARE RIGHT AFRICA GRAND MA OF ALL LATIN RYTHMS THATS WHY NO ONE CAN TAKE CREDIT FOR THIS OR THAT RYTYM.NOT CUBA NOT DR NOT PR NO IONE JI JI ONLY MAMA AFRICA............
Can't jader era lo que si Yama Latin jazz,siempre tineya los mejores percussionist, comomongo ,patato poncho.ey en las pilas el masteva manny oquendo, coke escavedo willie hobo. Que soneros mas talentos,ey el Rey de los vibrafhones.este player si era in gigantes de la musical Latin jazz.que viva la Latin jazz por siempre.
I always thought Cal was Santana before Santana was Santana so you may say actually he enabled Santana to be Santana. I am deeply grateful for this knowledge and these vids. Best wishes and many thanks
Guebo""" you don't know wtf? you're talking about. Compocition is original of Mongo Santamaria, do you know how many versions of Afro Blue there is? including the One and Only Mongo? forget about lyrics, Spain compocition by Chick Corea, someone too came up w lyrics, that's another issue. Get it?.

Gorgeously mysterious sound. Cal blends those vibraphones in Latin rhythm like he's mixing mystery stew. Thanks brownsmiley1. Kudos to you.
Cet Afro Blue est aussi sympa que celui de Mango.
It all traces back to Africa. Musically. No matter what.
m j you are right frica is the grandma of all latin rythms and many more. like la tumba frncesa ect..... peruvian rumba and much more....
First you got to go to Cuba, that's where all started. later Cubans taught Africans how to played Salsa, NO bullshit.
Gifts From The Motherland indeed

This is my all time favorite Latin Jazz song, I wonder why 13 listeners did not like it.
@ Herbert Man can you imagine not loving this beautiful music, lo how deprived is that, scary...
Do you really care ? I love his music. A friend of mine in high school got me started on Cal Tjader........a long time ago.
Seamless and Exquisite Latin/Jazz
"Afroblue" no es una composición de Cal Tjader es de un percusionista Cubano llamado Ramón "Mongo" Santamaria.
exacto
Mongo Santamaria - "Watermelon Man"
Gracias por el dato pero I dont care, esto es el cielo
Excellent
It all started with the banging of The drum...El ritmó was formed...From Africa to the Caribbean...Afro Cuban!
John Coltrane loved playing this composition
Mongoose Santa Maria on the congas in afro blue. Awesome!!!!

Victor Venegas on Bass! 🔥 Vic wrote the original bass parts.
Outstanding jazz track!
Phenomenal.
Go mongo!!!😀
One of many albums I have From Cal Tjader, fantastic
Sehr schön. Eine Musik mit einem meines Erachtens sehr hohem Unterhaltungswert. Fast schon transzendierend und somit wohl auch zeitlos.
