[TNO73]

What is the song title at 6:16?

Herb Alpert - Rise Forever!!!

[fignewton90]

Noone my age knows who this guy is, yet everyone my age knows his music. Even Biggie Smalls was a smart enough rapper to sample Herb's music. It's a pity noone since has... It'd be the best hip-hop track to come along in years.

[turellaalex]

Excelent!

[2tsimp]

Thank you Herb Alpert!

I was very much into the TJB's music even though it was well out of fashion with youngsters from my generation. I taught myself keyboards partly through learning Alpert's famous songs. He seems to be a great guy. We need more people like him in show business.

[coolsouthernrain75]

This was well done. Thanks for putting this on.

Herb has it all - Looks, Talent, Style, Class & great lungs! "This girl's in love with you"

[101damsel]

I use to dance with his music at my grandma's, the best trumpet player ever.

[gnossticc]

I didn't know he was jewish! For those nincompoop jew haters, this proves that jews are incredibly gifted!

[sseklof]

Herb and the TJB - among the first records I bought as a kid in the 60's. Always thought Herb was the coolest - this proves it - true for all these decades. Good on you Herb and Lani! And Karen ... some people just seem to have the voice of God in them when they play or sing. She was one of them.

[boxerdogs11]

One of my favorite interviews ever! I have always liked Herb Alpert, and his music, but after seeing this I have a new admiration and respect for him and Lani. They are truly blessed people and are sharing their blessings. What a wonderful example. We should all try to be more caring and giving as they are. God bless you both.

[1Cheytown]

Great piece on an amazing musician! Can't but get chocked up during the "Carpenters" portion...Karen fans can not help but the same "What if..." Its so great to see the respect he still has for here 40 years later...

[phever]

What's the song they were playing during Charles's intro of the segment? :D

[1Cheytown]

@phever It's called "Rise" from the 79 album of the same name...It was his biggest instrumental single

[HAYDNversusALIEN]

Awesome gentleman and musician and humanitarian, much respect to this man, wow

[scam019]

What a great profile on Herb Alpert. My wife and I saw he and Lani perform live at Seattle's Dimitriou's Jazz Alley on May 14th. They were incredible and took questions from the audience. It was the best concert I have ever attended. He is touring the country so check him out.

[saxking20]

One of the best pieces I've seen on Alpert. What an amazing career making wonderful music! Thank you Herb and CBS Sunday Morn.

[MFMOMX]

What a wonderful man and musician. He'll always be my Trumpet Hero!!

Thanks to him, many great new musicians will come from his generosity and love for music! Love you Herb!

[venturenut]

Thanks for posting this...I missed the original airing. Seldom have I watched an interview that brought tears to my eyes.

[Jedimaster20]

That piece of plumming "it was a Håkan Hardenberger quote lol XD

I love Herb Alpert!

[Harkabba]

Me encantó. Muchas gracias por subirla ♥...Es cierto, Carpenters tocaron el corazon de Herb Alpert y la personalidad de Karen, su forma de ser a más de uno encantó. Se nota que la extraña, y quien no!!!

Amo las canciones que hizo con The Tijuana Brass..sus canciones simplemente me encantan, y creo que A&M sin él no hubiera sido lo que llegó a ser XD! Lo bueno de A&M es que era una disquera donde todos eran tratados como un miembro de una familia. Podian grabar libremente!

[FlyingMondongo]

Tomando en cuenta que el legado musical de Herb Alpert es bastante insignificante, debe ser importante para su ego trascender apoyando instituciones culturales en apuros económicos.

Y sin duda, hasta el día de hoy se debe estar arrepintiendo por no haber apoyado a Karen Carpenter con su álbum en solitario. Debe ser muy duro. Pero más duro fue para Karen.
