Sammy Figueroa Presents A Tribute to Cal Tjader

"Figueroa proves to have a distinguishing technique and voice of his own, making him the leading percussionist in Latin jazz today." - All About Jazz

Renowned percussionist and Grammy nominee Sammy Figueroa has long been regarded as one of the world's great musicians. As one of the music's leading percussionists, he has played on countless records and is well-known for his versatility in many musical styles.
