RE: Cal Tjader on 2-track tape

Yeah, I play the tapes on an open reel 2-track deck. It's analog sound at its best. The Latin for Dancers is from around 1958. Same with Más Ritmo Caliente. I found them both in a 1959 Schwann Record Catalog as stereo LPs. It lists Ritmo Caliente as a mono LP.





Both tapes are true stereo. The Latin for Dancers tape has four tracks with the four Herman Herd trumpeters: It Ain't Necessarily So, Fascinatin' Rhythm, I Concentrate On You, and Mambo Macumba. The other tracks are: Yesterdays, Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen, For Heaven's Sake, This Can't Be Love, Cherry, Autumn Leaves, and I'll Remember April. I don't have the tracks for Más Ritmo Caliente. The insert with the track listings is missing. How does this compare with what you have? The tapes sold for $11.95 in 1958. An inflation calculator shows this is $98 in 2016 dollars!
