Dicen que ese hipódromo ya no es lo mismo, yo lo vi por fuera el año pasado cuando fui a Tijuana a revalidar mi visa.

[livinmyreality]

Video original de Tijuana Taxi en el Hipodromo de Tijuana..funny!

[KirinchoMalocozz]

Ese video es demasiado divertido, era la tónica de los videos de Herb Alpert. Gente haciendo cosas absurdas delante de una multitud (ojalá mexicanos, creo que Alpert los ama), pero felices de la vida dándose el gusto. Son videos demasiados sanos, salvo por lo de los toros, que a algunos ahora no les gusta (aunque que yo sepa en ninguno de sus videos sale un toro maltratado, sino al revés je je, toreros haciendo el ridículo).

The good old days of the Caliente Racetrack in Tijuana, Mexico from opening day in 1929 until it was destroy by fire in August 5, 1971! It was rebuild by 1975 as the New Caliente but never the same! Finally closed for good in 1992!

The first time I ever saw a drunk moaning and rolling on the grass was at this racetrack in 1967. "Too much tequilla," I heard one man say as he was passing by.

[Grampus54]

Oh ori ori, ori ori ori ori ORIENT!

[Carauthor]

@Grampus54 This takes me back to those days (in the 1970's) when I used to follow Leyton Orient. Sadly the song lasted longer than my support, still brings back nostalgic memories though. These days I am forever blowing bubbles!

Proud to be from Tijuana...

Agua Caliente race track, back in the days when they used to race horses, nowadays everything has changed and they only race grehounds.

Great video!! and song!!! btw, this song reminds of the race track, and revolution avenue...

Agua Caliente Racetrack in TJ, B.C. Mexico back in the 60"s. You can see all the hills in the back round are still bare. It was fun to drive down there for the day. Love the 60's

[epgrove1961]

Tijuana Taxi was the best Herb Alpert & The TJB song. It had all the great elements of a tune.

[stevemcgee99]

So interesting. People used to have fun.

[Snootwaller]

Kids these days think that "fun" was invented in the 1990's lol ;-)

[wurly164]

Why in my day, to have fun we had to go up hill both ways and fight bears in a snow storm just to watch a black and white tv, that had knobs.

[y00sta]

@stevemcgee99 yeah like nobody lights their farts anymore dang me  lol

[GUIDOBRAT]

These vids were NOT just for industry promo use only, Herb and the Brass had a series of successful television specials in the mid to late '60's (I was there)--these clips are culled from them but seldom seen. They were excellent shows.

[crowamonghens]

wow, trippy.

[outed2]

No fear of taxis' or taxes.... just nu'clear! What a great finish to this energy program.

[outed2]

What a great song from great artists. Loved it when Americano television CNBC stock report station played this with film of Enron Executives being busted by the FBI.

[bostonbruinsfever]

After all these years the car horn in the start makes sense.

[eh832p]

Herb is the best - whipped cream was the 1st LP i ever bought and now i have his entire collection on reel-to-reel, LP & CD.

what's the history behind these videos? were they for industry promotional use only? i don't recall there being general public consumption videos back then....how did you get/locate them? thanks very much for posting!

[ftsjr]

This video was from a television special that the band did, around 1967. I remember, as a child, watching it with my family. Check out "The Lonely Bull" video, from the same show. It was filmed in an empty bullring.

[DANOLAHAM]

Thanks a lot for this great video Thegoochman,the only question ask to myself is why Herb never was interested to release on dvd these videos when the man was at his best?
