CAL TJADER QUARTET- SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY NIGHT BLACKHAWK, SAN FRANCISCO.-1962-FIRST PRESS (MONO) USA-VERVE-V-8459. A rare original by one of the brilliant jazz musicians. CAL TJADER (July 16, 1925 — May 5, 1982) was an American musician who played Latin jazz. He is often called the most successful Latin American musician of non-Latin American origin.[1] He explored other jazz trends, especially modern jazz in small groups, while continuing to perform music from Africa, the Caribbean, and Latin America. Tjader mainly played the vibraphone, as well as drums, bongos, congas, timbales, and piano. He has worked with many musicians from different cultures. He is often associated with the development of Latin American rock and acid jazz.

His Grammy Award in 1980 for the album "La Onda Va Bien" marked the end of a career that had lasted more than 40 years. ...more

The album, released in 1968, is better known as the "White Album" because of its white cover, on which there is nothing but the name of the band (the serial number also appears on early editions), and which was designed by artist Richard Hamilton as an antithesis to the motley image of his predecessor. White Album was the first album The Beatles recorded and released after the death of the band's manager Brian Epstein. It was originally planned to be called A Doll's House ("Doll's House"), however, due to the release of the Family group's longplay with a similar name, Music in a Doll's House ("Music in a Doll's House"), it was decided to rename it.
