content: This cd is exactly what I hoped it would be. I play it while I'm cooking or entertaining because it is perfect background music. It makes me want a fondue pot and a set of bongos. Oh,wait, I have bongos already! Anyway, for someone ready to explore latin jazz this is a perfect intro. For those already into latin jazz, Cal Tjader is a must-have. I plan on expanding my collection of his music.
