Шаблон:Infobox album Breeze from the East is a 1964 album by vibraphonist Cal Tjader, arranged by Stan Applebaum.[1] The album features jazzy lounge music with a quasi-Asian sound.
Reception
Шаблон:Album ratings Stephen Cook reviewed the album for Allmusic and described the album as combining "the vibist's [Tjader's] Latin lounge style with kitschy Asian touches" describing the songs "Sake and Greens," "Cha," and "Shoji" as sounding like "'60s-era James Bond on a wild chase through the heart of Tokyo". Cook concluded by feeling that "The ultra-smooth Latin jazz sound Tjader favored has always been more infectious than demanding and Breeze from the East's commercialized mod/eastern elements only end up expanding the pop exotica mix".[1]
