The very begininng of the "protest music" time, and I learned of 1960's Big Band .... Love 'em both, but the TJB has staying power.

Whipped Cream sold over 6 million copies in the United States and the album cover alone is considered a classic pop culture icon. It featured model Dolores Erickson wearing chiffon and shaving cream. The picture was taken at a time when Erickson was three months pregnant. The cover was so popular with Alpert fans that, during concerts, when about to play the song "Whipped Cream", Alpert would tell the audience, "Sorry, we can't play the cover for you!"

@dabthe1st Actually, although "Whipped Cream" was used as the intro to the bachelorette, "Lollipops and Roses" was in fact used as the theme for when the bachelor(ette) learned about the person chosen for the date. "Spanish Flea", a song taken from the TJB's next album Going Places, was used as the theme for the bachelor.

My folks absolutely loved Herb Alpert. Plus James Last, etc. They had pretty good taste in music I guess. I just heard this song on a CBC French Radio II Espace Musique. And I had to some here and hear it again. Brings back alot of great memories.

Man, oh, MAN! Does this album cover bring back some guilty childhood memories. I would stare and stare and that fabulously, amazingly hot brunette knowing . . . hoping. . . wishing she was butt naked under all that whipped cream! Thanks Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass!!!
