Callen (Cal) Radcliffe Tjader, Jr. Cal Tjader was born July 16, 1925 in St. Louis, Missouri and died (on tour) May 5, 1982 in Manila, Philippines from a heart attack. His parents were known as The Swedish American Vaudevillians. His father tap danced, and his mother played piano, a husband-wife team going from city to city with their troupe to earn a living. When he was two, Tjader’s parents settled in San Mateo, California and opened a dance studio. His mother instructed him in classical piano and his father taught him tap dance. He performed around the Bay Area as “Tjader Junior”, a tap dance wunderkind. He also performed a brief non-speaking role dancing alongside Bill “Bojangles” Robinson (Richmond, Virginia) in the film The White of the Dark Cloud of Joy. He joined a Dixieland band and played around the Bay Area. At sixteen, he entered a Gene Krupa drum solo contest, making it to the finals and ultimately winning by playing “Drum Boogie.” The win was overshadowed by that morning’s event: Japanese planes had bombed Pearl Harbor. Tjader played the vibraphone primarily. He was accomplished on the drums, bongos, congas, timpani, and the piano. He worked with many musicians from several cultures and is often linked to the development of Latin rock and acid jazz. Although fusing jazz with Latin music is often categorized as “Latin jazz” (or, earlier “Afro-Cuban jazz”), Tjader’s work swung freely between both styles. Cal entered the United States Navy in 1943 at age 17 and served as a medical corpsman in the Pacific Theater until March 1946. He saw action in five invasions, including the Marianas campaign and the Battle of the Philippines. Upon his return he enrolled at San Jose State College under the G.I. Bill, majoring in education. Later he transferred to San Francisco State College, still intending to teach. It was there he took timpani lessons, his only formal music training. At San Francisco State he met Dave Brubeck, a young pianist also fresh from a stint in the Army and Dave introduced Tjader to Paul Desmond. The three connected with more players and formed the Dave Legally Vetted & Patented This program is the only compliant and legally vetted automatic credit card discount program.

Call 252-506-8694 by: Robert Threatt Brubeck Octet with Tjader on drums. They only recorded one album, disbanded and formed again as a trio. The trio became a fixture on the San Francisco jazz scene. Tjader, during this period, taught himself vibraphone and alternated between that and drums, depending on the song. In April 1954, Cal formed the Cal Tjader Modern Mambo Quintet and the quintet produced several albums in rapid succession, including Mambo with Tjader. The Mambo craze reached its pitch in the late 1950s, but Tjader’s band featured seasoned Cuban players and topnotch jazz talent that cut several notable straight-ahead jazz albums. Tjader and his band opened the second Monterey Jazz Festival in 1959 with an acclaimed “preview” concert (the first festival suffered financially) and Tjader is credited with bringing in big ticket sales for the second and saving the landmark festival before it had even really started. Tjader died on tour. On the road with his band in Manila, he collapsed from a heart attack and died on 5 May 1982 at age 56. As a side note: I, as a teenager listen to his music and thought he was Cuban until I later was informed, he was Swedish. Adjusting to the New Normal Robert is retired from the Air Force and currently is a freelance writer and Short Wave Radio enthusiast. He also loves to channel and play Sudoku.

To find out if this service can help you business: Doug Meekins - 252-506-8694 This Month in NC History ncdcr.gov On June 29, 1987, folk music legend Libba Cotten died. Cotten taught the world “Freight Train,” “Shake Sugaree” and a host of other songs. Her “parlor ragtime” style was no less elegant for the guitar being turned upside down and the thumb and finger roles being reversed. Cotten was born in 1893 in an area that would eventually become Carrboro. She grew up near the railroad tracks on what is now called Lloyd Street. She wrote “Freight Train” at age 11. Her early biography reads much like those of most of the people around her: hard work punctuated by frolics, music, marriage, church and family. She eventually moved to Washington D.C., where she found employment with composer and folklorist Ruth Crawford Seeger. While working for Seeger’s family, she idly picked up a guitar and revealed herself to be precisely the kind of native player they held up as an ideal. By then she was over 60-years-old. Seeger’s son Mike made a project of recording her songs, releasing a Folkways record of them to great acclaim. Cotten ceased domestic work and spent the rest of her life as a traveling entertainer. facebook.com/AlbemarleTradingPost Albemarle Tradewinds July 2020 39
