Here’s the complete video from his 1982 album “Fandango”. This video collaborates his first 20 years as a recording artist with the TJB and solo efforts. I cannot believe it’s been over 45 years now since he first started. Please enjoy this little history. PS Ihad the once in a lifetime opportunity to see Herb and Lani play at Blues Alley in Georgetown Washington DC 12 May 2008. The show was absolutely spectacular. After all these years, they both still have it: the skills and the love. Truly a remarkable show. Herb and Lani, thanks to all of the wonderful years of warming our hearts with your great art work. You both are truly blessed as well as I was at your show.

Just listen to the music and stop reading all of the crap opinions by all of the time-wasters on youtube
Yes he’s Jewish; and you are giving him unnecesary/doubtful credit for it. There is nothing special about being a jew; the jews have been persecuted through history, not for nothing; please stop your reverse psychology, it won’t work on me. There must be something wrong with a group of people when the whole world hate them…
Do you want to bring them back from the grave? Herb himself is around 77 years old; most of the other guys were EVEN OLDER!
Being Herb a native of Los Angeles; the instrumental piece probably refers to FREEWAY 101; but “Route 101″ sounds better than “Freeway101″…
I believe he’s also homosexual; do you also want to give him credit for that? When you tell only part of the story, you are actually propagandizing; which is common practice for the Jews; not for nothing Hitler, the Inquisition and a thousand more have tried to exterminate those guys. Let’s just say that he is/was a good trumpet player that got inspired in Tijuana Mexico in 1962.
Had that chip on your shoulder long? When I said Alpert was Jewish, I was only responding to someone who said he’s not Hispanic, so don’t put words in my mouth and read things into my previous posts. Who cares that you believe he’s gay? As for “the crap opinions by…the time-wasters on YouTube,” the SIX COMMENTS IN A ROW below are YOURS. So how about taking your own advice, quit acting like a troll, and quit trying to start pissing contests?
oh, hmmm why dont YOU listen to the music and stop leaving stupid hateful comments… whatever LOL LOL LOL!!!
What a hate monger you are.. I feel sorry for you. There was nothing WRONG with us! God used our people to bring Messiah to the world that you might be saved. But your hate and ignorance has consumed your heart. Goodbye
I was lucky and honored enough to get Herb Alpert autograph. I’ve liked him since I was in grade school and have all of his albums.
Man, I was in the 2nd grade when this came out!
@1961beethoven You are a fucking troll. Get a life. Who cares what he is? Just enjoy the music. Don’t be judgmental.
God people..chill out!! Just enjoy the music and stop the bickering…this music should calm the savage beast.
I used this for a video I did. It was two guys going on a road trip somewhere. It turned out well.
simply amazing how great this guy is at playing smooth jazz/music.

The summer of 1982 ,how can i forget that year,i was 14 and thought that was the greatest , jazzy,smooth hit of all time.HERB ALBERT your the best.
小学生の時にＣＭで流れていたのを覚えていて
今でもこの曲を聴くと当時の事をはっきりと想い出します。
私の大好きな曲です♪ ＵＰありがとうございます(*^^)
Whoa, :55-:1:01 I had no idea Kramer from Seinfeld was the trumbonist in the Tijana Brass? One of my favorite instrumentals off all time. I’ve been on Route 101 between Santa Barbara and LA and this song fits that ride to a T. Good post!
Oh this is soo fine. This song must be on the soundtrack of my life.
Anyone knows more songs with this vibe to expand that soundtrack…?
An appropriate fantasy for this: a ’62 red Corvette, a blonde in a black string bikini riding “shotgun” and this playing on the AM radio…..oh yes, the sun setting slowly over the Pacific. Are you with me, guys?
God I love this song…..one of the main reasons i got into trumpet playing was of Herb and used to play this song but i havent pick up my trumpet in so long…but yeah this song conjurs up a nice summer evening driving in a convertable with your beautiful wife ahhh
I always felt this song was much better than the follow-up, “Rise.”
