Funny! It's great. I like this video. I was still in college, circa: 1967 when I last heard of HA and the Tijuana Brass. That was before the noisy, eardrum cracking music came in. This comes as a refresher. Thanks for sharing.
This was used as the theme when the girl walked on the set in "The Dating Game"..Long hair & legged girl, short skirt, "Hip" music, hormonally-charged young boy...Ahh, the Sixties !...(grin)
This studio is still on La Brea in Hollywood/Los Angeles. Jim Henson/Muppets are housed there as well now. What a great piece of history. HAATTB bring back alot of memories from my childhood too. My father had everything by them.
I'm old enough to remember the last 10 years or so of the Variety Show-era( ending around 1980 ),and skits like this represent almost everything I hated about them.
@Substandard64 I've got a feeling you're gonna like my band's new Herb Alpert video (Tijuan Taxi). We use plenty of whipped cream without all the cheese.
@Highman804 You only say that because you haven't seen my band do a Herb Alpert song yet. Quit your sobbin' and go check out our new video, "Tijuan Taxi" for a lesson on how to properly play the trumpet.
He is with out a doubt the first musician that got me interested in listening! I grew up, Thanks to my Mom, listening to Herb and others that are Timeless!! Thanks Mom!
I've got the original album around somewhere, with very cute and VERY buxom brunette covered with nothing but whipped creme on the cover, licking some creme off one of her fingers.
That was an album cover designed to put some lead in your pencil.
the one and only time i've been in L.A. was in 1986 and i remember been walking in front of this pictorial house in La Brea or vine St. thanks a lot for this great clip.
Herb Albert looked alot like the famouse bodybuilder Frank Zane from the late 1960s to the late 1970s Mr Olympia champion 77,78, and 1979 check him out.
its true , south of the border they hold brass music in extremely high regard -a lot of talent down there , good to see a band do so well -Herbs recognizable across language barriers- excellent percussion giving his songs great timing, punch
I bet most you didn't know that Herb Albert was the "A" in A & M Records. He is rich beyond compare and really didn't need to perform then or now. But his love for the trumpet still keeps him going. HIs is very smooth. Too bad they didn't have real Mexicans in the group. Made up mostly of Italians
You need to know about Rafael Mendez, Alberto Valdes, Juan Santos, Jose Santos, etc. great Mexican trumpet players, and also Mariachi Vargas trumpet players.
For several experts in the world, Rafael Mendez is the best in the history.
I like very much this song heard it in the sixties when I was in London, and it remember me when I saw on a strip-tease club this really famtastic piece, listen carefully and you'll agree with me,
Being a massive Carpenters / Herb Alpert fan, I visited Los Angeles with a couple of fraternity buddies. I dragged them to A&M over the Memorial Day holiday in 1985. We actually managed to sneak onto the lot! We got all the way inside, where they were shooting a video. I tried to lie my way into the offices, and we were busted. They were incredibly nice to us, and probably should have called the cops, as we were definitely trespassing. But they were kind of laughing about it.
Herb and The Brass are just the Best all around. None better his music Rocks. There will never be another one like Herb and The Tijuana Brass. So glad I grew listening to this. The Kids now a days don`t know what they missed. True Music Gold.
Don't listen to 57highland, you go ahead and like what you like; remember, you are a person, not a machine that is to be programmed by what the so-called "in" people dictate. Tijuana Brass foreva!
What's wrong with a 17 year old liking this song? Why must you assume that all 17 year olds are brainwashed into thinking that the only "sick" and "tight" songs have to be by 50pennies, Britney the wacko, and the Jonass Bros.?
There's NOTHING wrong with it. I didn't say there was. I "assume" based on the fact that the no-talents you mention are thriving, so it must be that millions of kids like them, while very few kids like anything pre-90's. And I'm not so lucky as to personally know any kids who like the oldies. I was giving the kid a compliment, not an insult, so pull the bug out of your ass.

Thanks so much for doing this. I love Herb Alpert and Charlie Chaplin. What a great video. By any chance does anyone have the song Bullish that they can add?? It is one of my favorites and seems to be hard to find. I have it on vinyl but no means to play it at this time. Thanks again!!
Awesome. What a great sport Herbie was filming this. He is a genius and is responsible for so many great sounds that came out of that era. Rock on, Herb!
herp alpert songs remains me of my early childhood, beacause in Tijuana the t.v. station (canal 12) used starts at 4 pm, but meanwhile, we just can hear the alpert´s music before...the 70´s
Thegoochman, what was the original lineup of TJB, and haven't three of them passed away? Also, did Hal Blaine do the drumming on the studio albums? I know he was first-call drummer in LA at this time. thanks!
Bob Edmondson on trombone, Lou Pisano on piano, Tony Kalish on second trumpet, Nick Ceroli on drums. Can't remember the others (guitar and bass, I believe).
On goochman's "Herb Alpert Tijuana Taxi Hollywood Palace 1966" Herb introduces the group by name. Guitar player is Pisano or Pagano (either/or with the pianist), and bass sounds like Pat Senatare.
Tonni Kalash on 2nd trumpet, Lou Pagani - piano, John Pisano - guitar, Pat Senatore - bass guitar. On this recording Russell Bridges
played piano - we would all know him later as Leon Russell (who was a member of what was later known as 'The Wrecking Crew'. Hal Blaine also did many drum tracks on the 'Whipped Cream' album, although I don't think he did this one - can't remember who played drums on this, but it wasn't Nick Ceroli - he wasn't a full-time member until the next album (Going Places)
Thanks for the info. Music trivia is always interesting (even fascinating sometimes). As for Leon Russell, is there anything that guy DIDN'T do? I know him best from Joe Cocker's "Mad Dogs and Englishmen".
No problem...a little tidbit on Leon...he also played piano on Bobby 'Boris' Pickett's "Monster Mash", along with Darlene Love & The Blossoms providing the background vocals (e.g. "He did the mash...")
The Blossoms are another group who seem to have done it all. Over on "He's A Rebel" posting, people are trying to figure out if the Crystals ever actually got around to recording "He's A Rebel" or if The Blossoms' version (taken for the Crystals) was the only one ever recorded. Any clue?
It's to my understanding that The Crystals (with La La Brooks on lead vocal) did in fact record it later. How true this is, I don't know, but there is a video of Darlene getting up on stage with La La recently, where Darlene tells the story of the whole 'mess' that Phil Spector caused over that song - then they finally kick into it. Darlene still sounds great as ever. Hope that helps. (Clear as mud, right?) LOL
I've heard two recordings (different enough to tell apart with the naked ear). I'd also heard the Crystals/Blossoms mix-up story, so I figured that one version of "He's A Rebel" was one group of girls and one version was the other. The real students, in their comments, seem to think that the Blossoms recorded the song more than once and still wonder if the Crystals ever did. You're right (about the mud).
You have checked out Leon Russell's videos on YouTube from Shindig haven't you? There's Roll Over Beethoven, High-heeled Sneakers, and Jambalaya...very different-looking man back then, although you can tell he was growing his hair long - probably 'slicked' it back for the show. Wasn't long after these videos he started wearing the mustache & goatee and letting his hair down (as everyone else did). Somewhere there is a pic of him with the rest of the 'Wrecking Crew.'- may be Beach Boys-try both.
yeah, i caught the Roll Over Beethoven clip a while back. i'll look for pics of the wrecking crew for sure..loved him with Mad Dogs & Englishmen (though rumor has it he was a huge pain in the ass).. that aside, he's still in a class of his own . his body of work is extensive & i love every bit of it.
This is FANTASTIC! Very, very clever music video that brings back memories of how much of a well-rounded performer Herb Alpert was - a very funny man as well as a great musician.
Excellent, but the pioneer in this area is Spike Jones. Because of technical limitations of the 1940's Jones had to do everything in one take. Still this is exceptional stuff.
This, The Mamas & the Papas, The Beach Boys and Hollywood in the 60s, always conjured up an idyllic image of California to me as an east coast boy. Where'd it go?
Love Herb Alpert! Growing up in the 60's always listening to him. The Dating Game always used his music. Whipped Cream is an awsome album. Very sexy still. Love Potion # 9!!!!
Seems like producer Chuck Barris incorporated musical "licks" from several Alpert compositions thruout the show to highlight specific points like the intro, when contestants came out or when they revealed the date destinations, etc.
I last saw this 40 years ago. Great stuff! The TJB was my favorite band when I was a kid. Wish they would put all the TV specials on DVD. Thanks so much goochman!
Brilliant Stuff!

Thegoochman, what was the original lineup of TJB, and haven't three of them passed away? Also, did Hal Blaine do the drumming on the studio albums? I know he was first-call drummer in LA at this time. thanks!

Bob Edmondson on trombone, Lou Pisano on piano, Tony Kalish on second trumpet, Nick Ceroli on drums. Can't remember the others (guitar and bass, I believe).

On goochman's "Herb Alpert Tijuana Taxi Hollywood Palace 1966" Herb introduces the group by name. Guitar player is Pisano or Pagano (either/or with the pianist), and bass sounds like Pat Senatare.

Tonni Kalash on 2nd trumpet, Lou Pagani - piano, John Pisano - guitar, Pat Senatore - bass guitar. On this recording Russell Bridges
played piano - we would all know him later as Leon Russell (who was a member of what was later known as 'The Wrecking Crew'. Hal Blaine also did many drum tracks on the 'Whipped Cream' album, although I don't think he did this one - can't remember who played drums on this, but it wasn't Nick Ceroli - he wasn't a full-time member until the next album (Going Places)

Ah...Frank DeVito played drums on this (from Baja Marimba Band), as did Carol Kaye on bass, and, as I mentioned earlier, Leon Russell on piano.

Thanks for the info. Music trivia is always interesting (even fascinating sometimes). As for Leon Russell, is there anything that guy DIDN'T do? I know him best from Joe Cocker's "Mad Dogs and Englishmen".

No problem...a little tidbit on Leon...he also played piano on Bobby 'Boris' Pickett's "Monster Mash", along with Darlene Love & The Blossoms providing the background vocals (e.g. "He did the mash...")

The Blossoms are another group who seem to have done it all. Over on "He's A Rebel" posting, people are trying to figure out if the Crystals ever actually got around to recording "He's A Rebel" or if The Blossoms' version (taken for the Crystals) was the only one ever recorded. Any clue?
57highland 3 years ago
It's to my understanding that The Crystals (with La La Brooks on lead vocal) did in fact record it later. How true this is, I don't know, but there is a video of Darlene getting up on stage with La La recently, where Darlene tells the story of the whole 'mess' that Phil Spector caused over that song - then they finally kick into it. Darlene still sounds great as ever. Hope that helps. (Clear as mud, right?) LOL

I've heard two recordings (different enough to tell apart with the naked ear). I'd also heard the Crystals/Blossoms mix-up story, so I figured that one version of "He's A Rebel" was one group of girls and one version was the other. The real students, in their comments, seem to think that the Blossoms recorded the song more than once and still wonder if the Crystals ever did. You're right (about the mud).

MAN ! Leon russell is every where !
found it amusing he even played piano on Bobby Picketts monster mash.

You have checked out Leon Russell's videos on YouTube from Shindig haven't you? There's Roll Over Beethoven, High-heeled Sneakers, and Jambalaya...very different-looking man back then, although you can tell he was growing his hair long - probably 'slicked' it back for the show. Wasn't long after these videos he started wearing the mustache & goatee and letting his hair down (as everyone else did). Somewhere there is a pic of him with the rest of the 'Wrecking Crew.'- may be Beach Boys-try both.

yeah, i caught the Roll Over Beethoven clip a while back. i'll look for pics of the wrecking crew for sure..loved him with Mad Dogs & Englishmen (though rumor has it he was a huge pain in the ass).. that aside, he's still in a class of his own . his body of work is extensive & i love every bit of it.

This is FANTASTIC! Very, very clever music video that brings back memories of how much of a well-rounded performer Herb Alpert was - a very funny man as well as a great musician.

There aren't people like him anymore... :(

The instrumental sound of the swinging 60's. Classic stuff.

Excellent, but the pioneer in this area is Spike Jones. Because of technical limitations of the 1940's Jones had to do everything in one take. Still this is exceptional stuff.

This, The Mamas & the Papas, The Beach Boys and Hollywood in the 60s, always conjured up an idyllic image of California to me as an east coast boy. Where'd it go?

Love Herb Alpert! Growing up in the 60's always listening to him. The Dating Game always used his music. Whipped Cream is an awsome album. Very sexy still. Love Potion # 9!!!!

Seems like producer Chuck Barris incorporated musical "licks" from several Alpert compositions thruout the show to highlight specific points like the intro, when contestants came out or when they revealed the date destinations, etc.

I last saw this 40 years ago. Great stuff! The TJB was my favorite band when I was a kid. Wish they would put all the TV specials on DVD. Thanks so much goochman!
