Cal Tjader - Aquarius

[Glilavois11]

This song gives me the goose bumps in an exciting way. I wish modern music can be this emotional and artistic instead of being processed like a piece of bologna.

[gmonet46]

This disc is sadly long gone. If you have a copy you should lock it away...sadly I have not got one and would love it if anyone knew of a good copy available. I have a few rare CT's my self.

ELEVATOR MUSIC IS SO SWEET

[Antainale]

[KatieMHernandez]

The word maraud means to loot. In this case, we maraud for ears

[babah77088]

AGE of AQUARIUS

[trevmack]

the three dislike just don't know how to bounce

[Diogenes1360]

Let the wise beware, Lest they bewilder, The minds of the ignorant, Hungry for action: Let them show by example, How work is holy, When the heart of the worker, is fixed on the Highest.

[gmonet46]

Thanks to the brilliant arrangement by Claus Ogerman you can never call this stuff MOR or "elevator" music, rather elevated music!

[joshua626]

Man this is so bossa nova, but I have heard of plenty of bad. This is interesting and thought pro-voking from beginning to end.

[babah77088]

Nice Elevator Music. Q-Tip thought so, check interlude music on Midnight Marauders.

thx for uploading!

[Sketchboxx]

@DrDreitausend your welcome mr dreitausend



[altonw]

The moment I heard the sample of "Aquarius" on the Tribe's "Midnight Maurader" album, I knew right away that was Cal Tjader and also knew right away the piece was produced by Creed Taylor who was known for employing the string arrangements, flutes, and other woodwinds on a lot the albums he produced for Cal Tjader, Wes Montgomera, Stanley Turrentine, Freddie Hubbard, and Ron Carter back in the day. Nice piece......hopefully they'll re-issue this recording on CD real soon. Thanks Sketchboxx!

[coquelicot05]

Clin d'oeil aux verseaux

[dnjp4life]

Am I the only person who thinks of Jungle Book when hearing the first part of this song?

[belalakaperal]

ooh, light a spliff to this shit

[fiddlercrab3]

WOW! I've been listening to Tribe and Cal for years, and I never put two and two together! Thanks so much for posting!

[carllovesjesus]

do you have the album that this song came out on called the prophet.i have been trying to get this on cd for ever.man i love this

[Sketchboxx]

yes, i have it.

[gmonet46]

@carllovesjesus

I too am wondering why with the demand I have discovered, they (Japan) have not made a re-issue of the cd is beyond me. It was in my lp collection, and I sold it when the cd collection got too big. Even the vinyl is worth a ransome. I'll just start hunting it down in yard sales or gemm. Good luck!

[anetchi]

fantastic!

[Kaytradamus]

hello. this is your. midnight marauder's program. i'm on the front of your cover.

[damonjavon]

[maseo96]

top drawer selection, this tune came to life for me if i'm honest after tribe sampled it. classic album still gets played.

[Deivicho]

[roscoegino]

"keep bou-keep bouncing"

[WillyDynamight]

I got a handful of Tjader of records. Could never seem to come across this one. Tribe definately took the most majestic parts. ATCQ and Tjader live on.

[roscoegino]

have you heard "corine" from him?  funkafied bliss.

[manwomanboogie]

@roscoegino So This Is How Midnight Marauders Came About!!!! Wow....

my mind went right to 1993 as soon as i clicked on this, Lol...damn.

Beautiful Music.

[OrganicThumb420]

oh no you dint

[phazttraxx1980]

@roscoegino yeahuh Adult Swim, Tribe Called Quest, random ads. You name it, this song has been there. I think Nintendo did a generic version of this song for the Wii Store.

[worldofwoanders]

Who did the arrangements for this track? Sounds like it could be Don Sebesky.

I love this as much as the Midnight Marauders album.

[gmonet46]

Claus Ogermann worldofwoanders! Also they worked on Warm Wave together!

[docbattle07]

More Joao Donato in my youtube

[D14MOND5]

Sorry, i love Donato but this marvelous tune came from Claire Fischer,,,

[D14MOND5]

@robertoaidenbaum sorry but this tune is a Claire Fischer fantastic work

[hatcher772]

this has become one of my favorite songs as of late. i can thank tribe called quest for opening my eyes to new musical artists i've never heard before. as a lover of latin jazz, this is definitely a good addition to my catalogue.

[pervertedgentleman]

dit nummer is zooooooo vet

[loosestudios]

He won a Grammy in 1980 for his album La Onda Va Bien, capping off a career that spanned over forty years.Just as lifelong performer Tjader was born on tour, he also died on tour. On the road with his band in Manila, he collapsed from a heart attack and died on 5 May 1982.

[yoghurtbux]
