jond & jafreeman ...
You are both entirely welcome. I get a kick out of recommending great performance and recordings to friends.
I heard Cal Tjader live at a jazz club called Zardies in Hollywood when I was a senior in high school. That was 60 years ago (1956). I've been hooked on Tjader ever since. There are a lot of fine vibes players from that era, and many more from today ... but in my estimation, none can top the great Cal Tjader.
If you guys like Milt Jackson, you may like Lem Winchester even more:

And then there's Victor Feldman:

And we can't forget Wes Montgomery's brother "Buddy" Montgomery.
