Cal Tjader – I Say a Little Prayer


This is one of those peanut-butter-in-my-chocolate musical moments that I want for the soundtrack of my imaginary movie. The sticky pop genius of Burt Bacharach meets the jazzy latin vibe of the great Cal Tjader. The results are tight and playful and have a very cinematic late 60s feeling. I dare you to listen and NOT see a soft-focus movie montage in your head. In fact, there’s a whole album of this stuff, and it’s pretty great.
