mikeweil Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 (edited) Still researching Cal Tjader discographical details: There is a George Shearing MGM session (info on the original single releases from the Bruyninckx disco, I added the LP and CD issues): George Devins (vibraphone) George Shearing (piano) Jean "Toots" Thielemans (guitar) Al McKibbon (bass) Bill Clark (drums) Armando Peraza (congas -1) New York City, March 25, 26 & 28, 1954 53 S 3043 Get Off My Bach MGM 12079, E-3293 53 S 3044 Stranger In Paradise MGM 12132, - 53 S 3045 I’ve Never Been In Love Before MGM 11754, E-3175 53 S 3046 Minor Trouble MGM 12227, E-3293 53 S 3047 Basso Profundo MGM 12182, - 53 S 3048 Mambo Inn -1 MGM 11754, Verve 529 900-2 53 S 3049 Drume Negrita -1 MGM 12038, E-3293 53 S 3050 Cool Mambo -1 MGM 12227, E-3175 The liner notes of the MGM LPs E-3175 and E-3293 (which I have) state Tjader plays on all tracks. To make things even more unsure, I remember some entry (taken from the Verve Shearing CD Verve 529 900-2) that I cannot locate at this time, saying this version of Mambo Inn featured Tjader and was recorded at a different date .... But there is a Tjader session: - Cal Tjader Plays Afro-Cuban / Ritmo Caliente -: Cal Tjader (vibes, timbales) Eddie Cano (piano) Al McKibbon (bass) Armando Peraza (congas, bongos) Los Angeles, March 25, 1954 Goza Fantasy LP 3-17, Fantasy EP 4021 Panchero Mambero - - Ritmo Caliente - , Fantasy EP 4022, Fantasy F-8374 Mambo Inn - - Bernie's Tune - - All titles also on Trutone TLP 1027, Fantasy 3-216, Fantasy F-8077, Vocalion LAE 556, Fantasy F-24712, Fantasy FCD-24712-2. Can anyone help with this? Edited November 8, 2005 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Mike, the March 1954 George Shearing recording sessions are listed as having been recorded in Los Angeles in The Lord! McKibbon and Armando Peraza must have had a busy day in LA on March 25, 1954. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted November 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 (edited) Thanks a lot, Guy - can you copy and paste all the Shearing entries for 1953 and 1954 from Lord? Would be great! Thanks again! Because: If both sessions were recorded in L.A., Tjader would be the more likely vibist on the Shearing session!

brownie Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Mike, sorry to confirm that I'm from an older generation and my copy of The Lord is paper. Just too lazy to type all the Shearing stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted November 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Oh, that's cool - I'm sure Michael Fitzgerald will step in soon .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
