| Re: Who's Herb Alpert? Herb Alpert and the TJB....
Oh man.....
Lonely Bull, A taste of Honey, Spanish Flea, Tijuana Taxi, Zorba the Greek man I could go on and on..
Herb was among my many early influences along with Chuck Mangione and Louis Armstrong etc...
He does indeed give great sums of money to Music education.
He did a great job of finding his niche.. After all when he was getting big you had Mendez and some guy named Maynard that were tearing it up also and were extrodinary trumpet players!
That's pretty tough competition to distinguish youself from!
