Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass: Summertime | |
| Performer: Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass Title: Summertime |
Track Listing:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | Hurts So Bad {Teddy Randazzo/Bobby Wilding/Bobby Hart} [2:20] Jerusalem {Herb Alpert} [2:33] Martha My Dear {Lennon/McCartney} [2:07] If You Could Read My Mind {Gordon Lightfoot} [2:39] Darlin' {Brian Wilson/Mike Love} [2:50] Summertime {George Gershwin/Dubose Heyward} [2:10] The Nicest Things Happen {Julius & Cissy Wechter} [3:12] Montezuma's Revenge {Sol Lake} [2:41] Catch A Falling Star {Paul Vance/Lee Pockriss} [3:00] Strike Up The Band {George & Ira Gershwin} [2:33] |
Notes:
While billed as a TJB album, once again this album sounds more like another Alpert solo album. Obvious TJB tracks are arrangements of "Hurts So Bad", "Darlin'", and the Gershwins' "Strike Up The Band". What's different are the quiet arrangements of "Martha, My Dear", Gordon Lightfoot's "If You Could Read My Mind", and the Wechter(s)-penned "The Nicest Things Happen". "Summertime" is a bit jarring at first, especially if you know the original Gershwin arrangement and melody; here, it is given a "jazz" arrangement inspired by Miles Davis, Lambert/Hendricks/Ross, and Ahmad Jamal. (Also note that it is the first Alpert or TJB track to feature Lani Hall on vocals.) After this album, Herb Alpert would take a break from recording and concentrate on producing other artists' music and running A&M Records.
