Summary: Herb Alpert: Definitive Hits
Comment: This had all my Herb Alpert favorites plus additional songs I'd never heard before. I really love this album. The first 13 songs are with the Tijuana Brass and are, in my opinion, the best on the album. The remaining 7 songs are okay, but not quite as good. Then again, I am a fan of the Tijuana Brass sound. It was definitely worth the price to me.

Summary: What a Fun Album!
Comment: I am very pleased with this album!! It's a lot of fun and instantly made me want to get up out of my chair and hop around the room! My husband, infant son, and I have all had a nice time listening and bobbing along to these peppy hits! If you are a Tijuana Brass or Herb Alpert fan, I recommend getting this album!
It's so nice to _finally_ find so many of the hits that I recognize on ONE album! It's a winner!!

Editorial Reviews:
|
In an era when elaborate wordplay and adventurous production were the order of the day, Herb Alpert made an impact barely uttering a word or breaking a mold, other than expanding the commercial parameters for pop instrumentalists. Dashing trumpeter Alpert and his Tijuana Brass scored five top-20 hits between 1962 (when "The Lonely Bull" climbed to No. 11 in the U.S.) and 1968 (when the vocal-driven "This Guy's in Love with You" cracked the top 10), racking up five No. 1 albums over the same period. The group's patented "Ameriachi" sound made up in south-of-the-border sprightliness what it lacked in innovation; the likes of "Spanish Flea" and "Casino Royale" possessed the kind of unshakable hooks that fit perfectly on top-40 radio sandwiched between Nancy Sinatra and the Mamas & the Papas. This 20-track overview serves up 13 selections from the Tijuana Brass's heyday and is rounded up with seven Alpert solo selections, including comeback hits from 1979 ("Rise") and '87 ("Diamonds"). --Steven Stolder
