  • Description

    This edition combines two fine Tjader albums that have been out of print for more than half a century. The 1961 set, In A Latin Bag, Tjader's debut album for Verve was produced by Creed Taylor and features Armando Peraza on bongos, Paul Horn on flute, Al McKibbon on bass, Wilfredo Vicente on congas, Johnny Rae on timbales and Lonnie Hewitt on piano.

    The material represents both edges of the Tjader blade. Pauneto's Point, Davito and Mambo in Miami are straightforward Latin vehicles, Green Dolphin Street, Speak Low and Misty are favourite jazz pieces, Paul Horn's Ecstasy and Half and Half are essentially jazz compositions that sound right with a Latin rhythm section, while Theme from Ben-Hur and Triste are mood pieces that defy categorisation.
