The Beat of the Brass

Saturday Mayhem 17 3PM-6PM
Hosted by Max Level.

During the 1960’s, handsome trumpeter Herb Alpert led his posse The Tijuana Brass through a hugely successful decade, releasing a dozen hit albums and performing all over the world. In the 1970’s and beyond, Alpert fronted various lineups, still using the Tijuana Brass name, but the batch of records released 1962-69, credited to the “original” lineup, were the coolest and the most memorable. Those are the records we’ll be listening to. Instrumental pop music from south of the border… what could be better on a beautiful Saturday afternoon?
