NO PRESENTS… CAL TJADER – THE SAMPLES VOL.1

The Blind I faithful know that I have a deep appreciation for “original samples” as well as the producers who take these original samples & flip them into something of their own, creating a NEW & refreshing sound, allowing those who give two shits to become familar with the original song & or the artist themselves.

Just like my other series that I do (aside from NKD), Trace Elements, which showcases various artists & their original song followed by the artist who flipped them, THIS particular compilation focuses on one particular artist… the late-great Cal Tjader!

eNjOy!
