[Vibraphonicman]

Is it possible to get the music notation to Guachi Guara?

[itsthejazzkid]

the arrangement that i made for this performance is based off of the chart in the real book vol. 1

[eulalios113]

good , but need little more accuracy to sing "la clave"

[ezekielvictor]

it's Cal Tjader, "Guachi Guara." =p

[itsthejazzkid]

cal tjader, yes i know, that was the video guy's fault. and the second one is debatable, though you are probably right

[ezekielvictor]

it's not debatable... it's Spanish! they don't use the letter W.

[itsthejazzkid]

ahhhh. good to know. however, that's how they wrote it in the real book.

stupid white people

[ezekielvictor]

haha lol for sure @ white people. you guys played that out of the real book? nice. i thought it was some arrangement. good job, sounds good. ;)

[RCTjader]

Thanks you for acknowleding tyhat it is Cal Tjader. As far as the title goes, You are both right. Correct spelling is Guachi Guara... the original recording has it as Wachi wara --though My dad always called it Whachi Wado on the bandstand...so--go figure..My Dad would enjoy your version--Thanks for covering!.. Rob Tjader--Cal's Son.

[itsthejazzkid]

Mr. Tjader, I am honored that you say so. Thanks : )

[jpmiller567]

rob , i am 71 y.o. and we used to go a club in L.A. where your dad was featured. we were in med school and we truly enjoyed his music!!! every week, i have to listen to his music and yes, that's how he introduced it Whachi Wado!!!!! are you a musician also??? dr. john

[RCTjader]

Hi Doc -My apologies for the reply taking so long--i don't get on this site as much as I'd like to. I do play some --just not professionally --always noice to hear stories from those who enjoyed and had the opportunity to see Dad live- best-Rob
