Herb Alpert - Taste Of Honey (Great 1966 clip)

[katanakeith]

(taking a deep breath.......................)­, He was a good looking guy. Who wants to look up his nose while he's playing? Okay, I'm done ranting.

[katanakeith]

Really? Seriously? Someone posted that his posture is poor! He's made millions and millions and this is what you complain about? God knows how many guitarists don't play with their thumb properly behind the neck,or the fact that Dizzy played with his cheeks puffed out till his eyes looked like they were going to burst.or that King was terrible at chords and relied on single note playing. Why watch if all you want to do is inflate your own ego?

[tripjet999]

Obviously lip-synched to the studio version of the song, but still nice. And they were GREAT live, too!

[KDMensch]

I haven't heard this in YEARS....memories!

[homeagent]

I think he was lip syncing,

[jimisback]

@homeagent  He was, I saw it in the bell.

[swampwiz]

I realize this is lip synching - or should I say, "embouchure synching" - but Alpert's trumpet posture is quite poor (i.e., the horn always pointing downwards.)

[furpurr]

@swampwiz his trumpet posture is quite poor? really? i mean, as long as he could play as beautifully as he did...what difference does it make how he is holding his trumpet?!? geesh... folks will complain about ANYTHING...

btw people, some of you must be YOUNG... songs were pretty much ALWAYS lip synched on tv "way back when"...it was done up until the "milli vanilli" scandal.

[roys79boy]

Introduced by the hilarious Bill Dana!

[darzil007]

i heard joe pizzano wrote this tuen .i,m not sure how much is the truth, not that the great pizzano can,t write such tune but as a jazz man u think different...of course this is my take

[wannawatchu66]

@darzil007 You mean John Pisano? Who's "Joe Pizzano?" "A Taste Of Honey" was written by Bobby Scott and Ric Marlow.

[slide4180]

Great trumpet-synching.

[MrRaiderfan1000]

Wow..good looking and talented. You don't see that anymore. And please do not say Justin Bieber, he's still a kid!

[Barloventi]

Simple. Perfect

[ChicagoBoomBoom]

TOTAL LIP SYNCH. NOT GOOD. EVEN THOUGH I LOVE THESE GUYS SO SO SO MUCH AND GREW UP WITH THEM. OH WELL.................. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY LINKS TO LIVE STUFF?

[wintersgrace]

This is pissing me off...I want to share this with my friends on Facebook, but its not happening...damn.

[franticamber]

Excellent composition! Music doesn't get any more ORIGINAL than this.

[hildman5]

very good old video

[1sttvbn]

Fantastic tune!

[wintersgrace]

Herb Alpert and his Guido Brass...this song rocks.

[chopard4545]

This I believe was from the first Kraft Music Hall on NBC I think. I was at the filming of this show.

[SixtiesPopGoldExtra]

@chopard4545 This is from Grammy Awards. I don't think Kraft Music Hall was shot in color until 1968.

TIJUANA BRASS, HERB ALPERT, AS GRANDES REUNIÕES DANÇANTES COM O BOLACHOES DE VINIL. TEMPO BOM VILA IAPI

[09keef]

@chopard4545 wow. You were part of history. This is pop culture and you were there!

[Onneff69]

The TV program might be from '66 - but the song is definitely from 1965 (so..I guess you should change it again). :)

The various awards (like the Academy Awards) are for the releases in the *prior* year.

[HAMAGINKO]

Good Band＾＾

最高です。。p

[tijuanabrassman]

This is GREAT

[Jazzbill1958]

Nice video! But I would say this is from 1966 since they won the Record Of The Year award in early '66. 

[SixtiesPopGoldExtra]

@Jazzbill1958 Yeah, you're right. I'll change it.
