Posted 17 Aug 2020 (edited) This discography was my starting point to work with the BRIAN database. An abridged version is found as an appendix to S. Duncan Reid's biography of Cal Tjader. I am indebted to him for many details he was able to discuss with musicians who participated in these recordings. We were able to clear many details of the recordings dates and locations - there are many incorrect or simply estimated dates printed in the album credits. Additional thanks are due to James Harrod, Jack Woker, and a board member for a tape of a rare Nick Esposito 78 enabling me to compare tracks. The George Shearing sessions with Tjader were released in many more different issues which will be added soon.

It was supposed they were intended for Release on Fentone 2001, but this proved to be incorrect; Mingus was dissatisfied with the performance of "God's Portrait" and re-worked the arrangement. Dick Collins played trumpet on this session, his son informed the label after the Uptown reissue was published (information courtesy of Chuck Nessa). Uptown Records owns the rights to the Fentone masters; all other issues are illegal outside of Europe and were copied from the Uptown CD; this release was researched with great care and its booklet is essential reading for anyone interested in the West Coast scene of the time. This issue also includes a rehearsal with Mingus on piano in dialogue with Ralph Manza "Arranging the intro to He's Gone". Robert E.

However, interviews with Iola Brubeck and studies of photos and newspaper reports give evidence that Dick Saltzman played on the first Octet sessions. All discographies and issue credits listing Tjader on earlier Octet sessions were copied from the first release on Fantasy that simply assumed the personnel was identical to that of the later sessions. Dave Brubeck gave these recordings to Fantasy to complement the later Octet sessions.

Several discographies list a version of Empty Ballroom Blues (4 Star 1294) as recorded at this session, but aural comparison shows it is identical to the version recorded at Esposito's 1945 session issued on Pacific 603. Another take of Empty Ballroom Blues listed is a misreading of "Empty Room Blues" c/w "She's A Killer" by Ivory Joe Hunter, issued on 4 Star 1481.

This session was originally recorded by and issued on the Coronet label, the records were manufactured by the Weiss bothers' pressing plant. They bought the masters after Coronet went out of business; as orders for the records kept coming in, they seized the opportunity to start their own label, Fantasy, with the next Brubeck trio sessions, but kept the Coronet master numbers for the first four issued tracks. Some performances are contained in a test pressing in James Harrod's collection; it has four breakdowns of Idaho on one side and four complete takes of four tunes on the other, without talking or studio chatter. The take of Laura on this test pressing proves to be identical with the one released on the Coronet 78. Furthermore, Tarik Townsend commented on Harrod's blog that the takes of Laura and Tea For Two on the Coronet or Fantasy 78s and the Fantasy LPs are different, which I confirmed by aural comparison. All this leads to the conclusion that more than the four originally issued tracks were recorded at this first Brubeck Trio session, despite the anecdotic report that the group had to record them to acetate disc under extreme time constraints (after the newly acquired tape recorder had failed to run at constant speed). Another possibility is that there was more than one session held in September 1949. The identity of the vocalist on the test pressing is uncertain; Dave Brubeck suggested it might be Barbara Ritchie, who worked at NBC in San Francisco at the time; Frances Lynne reportedly sang with the Brubeck Octet; see Harrod's blog [http://jazzwestcoastresearch.blogspot.de/2012/10/the-dave-brubeck-trio-fantasy-records.html] for details and to listen to these recordings. There is one other recording by Ritchie for comparison which features an audibly different voice (see next session), and only very few by Lynne which have not been available to me for audition, but due to the different sound of the voices I opt for Lynne on this session.

It also includes interview segments with Brubeck and two big band tracks (not Brubeck related). The singer is identified by the announcer (possibly Jimmy Lyons) as "our Barbara Ritchie", who worked at KNBC at the time. https://youtu.be/jxnmBF-znhc Tjader's drumming on the first track imitates tap dance rhythms.

"53-S-381 was originally assigned to Caravan. When Tiempo De Cencerro was issued as a two-sided single, master numbers assigned were 53-S-380/81 and a new master (55-S-451) was assigned to Caravan" (from the MGM Discography by Michel Ruppli & Ed Novitsky). The new master number led previous discographers to assume Caravan had been recorded at a later session, which is incorrect. Cal Tjader audibly played the cencerro/cowbell and the bongos (during the drum exchanges with Candido) with (probably vibraphone) mallets. Rolón is credited for playing "shakers" on all issues and in discographies, but what he plays is a Cuban shekeré. Some sources mistitle track a/b Tempo di Concerto.

On the tracks with Peraza there are timbale-like sounds to be heard; either Bill Clark turned off his snares and added a cowbell to his drumset, or Tjader switched to timbales when not playing vibes, especially in Cool Mambo.

Vocals and claves on c, g, & m may have been overdubbed. a, b, d, h, i, j, p, q were released in true stereo on Fantasy 12" LP 8019 Latin For Dancers, along with the four stereo tracks from the September 11, 1954 session. This rare LP is the only issue of track q. On the Original Jazz Classics issues only a, b, and d are stereo. Whether or not the whole session was recorded in stereo is not known, but I doubt this - if there had been a stereo tape of Tjader's greatest hit of the time, Guarachi Guaro, Fantasy would have used it. Fantasy 8019 misidentifies q as Squeeze Me by Fats Waller and Clarence Williams. c. spelled Wachi Wara or otherwise on several issues, e.g. Fantasy 533-X. The master number were assigned for the 45 rpm issues.

Solos: a - Dean Reilly (b); Brew Moore (ts); Cal Tjader (vib) b - Brew Moore (ts) Fantasy LP 3-264 gives August 28, 1955 for Due's Blues. Newspaper articles in the Oakland Tribune and San Francisco Chronicle confirm this recording date and the personnel of a Cal Tjader Septet with trombonist Bob Collins – who performed on unreleased tracks – , Moore, and White plus the Vince Guaraldi Trio (Guaraldi, Duran, and Reilly). Fools Rush In was recorded at this concert according to information from Reilly; Ralph J. Gleason mentions this in passing in his liner notes, although the personnel credits of Fantasy LP 3-222 do not list the different line-up for this track, leading many previous discographers to assume it was from the Brew Moore sessions of November 1957. The Tom Lord Discography says August, 1958 for similar reasons, which is just as incorrect. Other titles recorded remain unissued. Another track, Journey’s End, is attributed to this session in the Bruyninckx and Lord discographies, but aural comparison reveals it is identical to Land’s End from the January 20, 1957 Cal Tjader session at The Blackhawk.

Luis Miranda was not credited for this session. It looks like these tracks were recorded when the 10“ LP Fantasy 3-17 Cal Tjader Plays Afro-Cuban was to be reissued on 12“ LP and there was not enough music – this session almost re-unites the personnel of the March 6, 1954 session (with Luis Miranda added and a different pianist). Cubano Chant obviously was recorded at two sessions and spliced together, the second part probably is from the February 21, 1956 session (the total performance runs 6:17).

The timings for several of these tracks include conversations and playing before and after the tunes are actually performed. This edition of the Tjader Quintet played at the Club Macumba September 3-16 and October 2-28, 1956, the recordings were most likely made at this occasion. Jesse Cooley was the drummer at the beginning of this engagement but had to quit after a few nights due to some family emergency. There is a short percussion workout with a second conga/bongo player before the end theme of track a. - since it overlaps with vibes playing, and timbales are heard continuously it must be Cal Tjader and Luis Kant, both on congas and bongos, with Kant playing the last bongo passage as Tjader starts playing vibes. Al Torre reported he played bongos, too, on live performances, being taught by Tjader and Kant. He is heard on both takes of For Heaven's Sake on that instrument. After listening to these recordings Al Torre said he played accompaniment only, so the timbale solo in the longer take of Philadelphia Mambo must be by Cal Tjader. The moment when Tjader switches to timbales after his vibes solo and back after the conga solo is audible, Torre picks up a hand-held cowbell.

Some issues and discographies list drummer Al Torre for this session, but he denied having participated, and there is no jazz drum set audible – he reported he doubled on timbales in live appearances, but never during recording sessions. Armando Peraza is not credited for playing but seems a plausible choice as a bongo and cencerro player, as congas, bongos, timbales, and vibes are all heard at the same time, the playing style could well be his, and he was a member of Tjader’s band during the tour.

Strings and harp play on a.,d.-e., i.-k.; flute and brass play on b.-c.g. Only the Fantasy CD reissue mentions a recording date, October 18, 1960, for the whole album. Cal Tjader states in his part of the liner notes, the music for the West Side Story LP was recorded at two sessions with different instrumentation: one with strings and harp, and one with flute and low brass, added to a rhythm section quartet. Additionally, he says three tracks were recorded with the basic quartet or quintet. Based on this statement, I have noted the intruments audible on the respective tracks. Alvin Dinkin is credited as violinist, but was in fact active as viola player in the majority of his engagements (and a member of the Hollywood String Quartet in that chair); furthermore, two violas and one cello beneath 2 x 4 violins was a standard for Hollywood orchestras. George Roberts is listed as trombonist; in fact he was a bass trombone specialist, and what is heard in the brass section sounds like the lower instrument. Master numbers 1968/1969 were attributed to h./e. for the 45 rpm single release.

The liner notes of Fantasy F-8068 and the credits of OJCCD-1106-2 state Lonnie Hewitt played electric piano on this session, but all I can hear is a celeste on track b. on the right channel – Tjader plays just a few notes on the vibes on this track on the left channel. I guess Dick Hadlock, the author of the original liner notes (replicated on OJCCD-1106-2 and probably the source for this credit), did not know the celeste, a metallophone played by a keyboard, and since it sounds close enough to the electric pianos in use at the time, he probably identified it as such. Older discographies do not mention Hewitt playing an electric instrument. The use of a celeste would fit the sophisticated arranging style of Clare Fischer, who would not start using electric piano until the 1970‘s (as did Hewitt) – he did use organ on other recordings around that time for Pacific Jazz and on a Verve Cal Tjader session in 1963 that, incidentally, also had Tjader play celeste on one track.

There are no vibes audible on track i; Paul Horn does not play on track g; it must be Tjader playing the hand-held cowbell whenever bongos are heard at the same time. I assume it was Tjader who played guiro on h and Peraza the cowbell; Johnny Rae probably plays the gong (in fact a tam tam, as it should be called correctly) on a & f; the LP notes say Paul Horn plays bass flute on some tracks where it is in fact an alto flute in its lowest range.

The liner notes of the 1962 LP and the CD reissue say all tracks for the album Cal Tjader Plays The Contemporary Music Of Mexico And Brasil were recorded March 5-7, 1962 - the Verve Discography spreads the recording over three dates, February 28, March 5, and May 21. The dates in Ruppli's Verve Discography are consistent with the master numbers assigned, even more when seen in context with adjacent Verve recording sessions, and personnel listings are correct, except that Changuito is omitted (like on the credits for the album with Anita O'Day); for these reasons I decided to use the recording data from the Verve discography. Still, the take of Silenciosa issued may be from a later session but filed under the master number first assigned.

This is a collective personnel listing of the woodwind players for all three sessions for the LP Several Shades of Jade. Phil Kraus is mistakenly listed as a woodwind player; in fact he played orchestral percussion. This renders the assumption in the CD reissue credits that Tjader may have played the xylophone parts obsolete. The CD reissue credits state there are conflicting data for distribution of the tracks to the dates on the union reports, but those from the Verve work books seem more plausible - they are used here, as they are also found in the Verve discography - s. the CD reissue booklet for details. The double LP reissue The Exotic Sounds of Cal Tjader combined all but one track from three Verve LPs in a different playing sequence.

According to Johnny Rae's recollections Tjader's band was brought in from California when producer Creed Taylor's recording concept with NewYork studio musiscians did not work as expected. They recorded the whole album in one three hour session on November 20; only one track from the preceding sessions was used for the original LP issue. Rae also reports Willie Bobo and the singer were brought in to overdub vocals and quijada to Soul Sauce the following day.

He may have written the arrangements for the session. The three tracks under Donald Byrd's leadership were recorded at the same session, or one immediately following on the same day, personnel was not documented but probably includes some of the players from the Tjader tracks. Their master numbers are adjacent to those of the Tjader tracks of the November 20 session. The sequence of master numbers suggests that the three Tjader tracks might already have been attempted at the November 19 session. Date: June 1, 1965 Location: A. & R.

The composer of d.

Gillespie's conga player Big Black is listed in the LP credits, although Hilliard cannot recall any Gillespie band members joining them. Another source confirms the participation of Gillespie's drummer of the time, Rudy Collins; since drums and timbales as well as congas and bongos are all audible at the same time, this personnel seems plausible.

One of the trombonists plays a solo during the fadeout of track e. although there is no section playing. The unidentified vocals and percussion most likely are by band members.

Furthermore, it looks like the master numbers of Samba Do Sueño and Los Bandidos were mixed up. This listing corrects these errors.

According to the liner notes, Don Sebesky was sent the tapes of the basic tracks and lead sheets to write arrangements after the recording session of the rhythm quartet. Flute, brass, voices, percussion, and strings were overdubbed in a New York studio at a later date early in 1968. Stamm and Laws are credited in the liner notes; in some tracks multiple flute and brass parts are audible, but it is not clear whether there are additional players involved or they overdubbed. In all other discographies João Donato is credited as pianist on this date, but he plays organ, there is no piano audible! There are no separate personnel credits, but the liner notes mention Donato playing organ, as well as Mitchell and Thigpen.

Personnel listings are based on aural evidence; this session appears to have been recorded live in the studio except for some percussion and Abene's keyboard overdubs, the latter often sound much like an amplified jazz guitar.

The DVD credits list only one track titled "Improvisation & Blues" with a total timing of 6:48 minutes. It opens with an accompanied out of tempo solo introduction by Gillespie and then segues into a slow blues tempo for 20 seconds. An obvious edit leads to four minutes of a different piece with solos by Gillespie and Tjader, ended by a theme played in unison by Gillespie and Glenn, probably from the Gillespie bandbook of the time. Paulinho da Costa was a member of Gillespie's band at the time, but the conga player seen on screen looks more like Tjader's band member, Michael Smithe; another unidentified musician can be seen picking up a cuica from the percussion table, both are hardly audible. Track a. has not been auditioned; it could be from the same performance or even be (partly?) identical with the DVD track. The credits and date for this track are from the Malpaso CD.
