About
Throughout his lengthy and prolific career, Cal Tjader had one foot firmly planted in Latin rhythms. But the vibraphonist came up in the Bay Area's cool jazz scene, and even on this hip-shaking album, he and his sidemen keep things frosty. Alongside percolating Latin jazz standards like Dizzy Gillespie's "Soul Sauce (Guachi Guaro)" and Mongo Santamaria's "Afro Blue” are chill-ready late-night ballads like "Somewhere in the Night" and "Spring Is Here.” Mellow bossa nova groove "Joao" strikes a perfectly stylish balance.

Earliest pressings do not have any mention of Tabasco on the back cover. A sticker was later added, stating the following, and then even later the covers have this directly printed on back:
"The dress of the 'Soul Sauce' bottle on the cover of this album was inspired by TABASCO®SAUCE manufactured exclusively by McIllhenny Company, Avery Island, Louisiana"
