Brubeck Trio with Cal Tjader

Notes

Cal Tjader is of course the Latin percussionist. The recording date appears to be 1949, prior to Dave's swimming accident in Hawaii which broke up this trio. This set of tracks was most likely released as 3x 10" LPs, then as 2x 12" LPs, which were subsequently re-released with different catalogue numbers.
