Our Take

CAL TJADER QUINTET Live At Club Macumba San Francisco 1956 2Cdin Review:

If you're looking for some old school Latin jazz vibes to transport you back to a time when hipsters were sipping cool cocktails at Club Macumba in San Francisco, then look no further than the newest release from the Cal Tjader Quintet. This live album captures the energy and spirit of a bygone era, with Tjader's vibraphone skills taking centre stage and wowing the crowd with his smooth melodies and infectious rhythms.

From the moment the band kicks off with the groovy opening track, you can't help but be drawn in by the infectious beats and sultry saxophone solos. The musicianship on display here is top-notch, with each member of the quintet bringing their A-game and creating a sound that is at once familiar and fresh.

One of the standout tracks on the album is the uptempo "Mambo Macumba", which will have you tapping your feet and swaying your hips in no time. Tjader's vibraphone solo on this track is nothing short of mesmerising, showcasing his technical prowess and musical intuition.

Overall, Live At Club Macumba San Francisco 1956 is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado looking to add some vintage flair to their collection. So grab yourself a cocktail, close your eyes, and let the Cal Tjader Quintet take you on a musical journey back in time. Cheers!
