These were times when Herb Alpert and other artists of their generation were just that, real artists who could play real instruments and play them well.

My Grand father and Dad weren't frivolous with money but they both insisted on good Hi-Fi audio equipment back then. Today, I'm the same way. My dad even built his own speaker cabinets and fitted it with the drivers / speakers that he felt gave him the best sound. My siblings and I got the full benefit of that. :yep:

I also liked the album cover of Herb Alpert's, Taste of Honey. I remember staring at that cover for long periods of time when I was a young kid. It might explain why I also love whipped cream and, um, never mind.... :D:yep:

Another one from Herb Alpert-Rise. Just awesome musicianship and artistry from Herb and the bass, drummer and other musicians.

Herb Alpert With The Jeff Lorber Band - Rise (Live At Montreux 1996)

Nice! I know what you mean about that album cover. Stared at it for a long time myself when I was a young lad too!

Here is something a little bit different. John Paul Jones, bassist extraordinaire of Led Zeppelin accompanies various artists from the U.S and around the world on their renditions of " When the levee breaks." Derek Trucks on slide guitar even makes an appearance.

I think that John Paul Jones guy on bass guitar is pretty good. He should join a band. He might make it big. :03: :yep:

Something a bit different......only vocals.
A beautiful woman singing to you...one of life's pleasures :yep:

Too jazzy for me, though it is good. Strange enough I have not much heard of them before ..

Lovely voice, talented singer.

^ really nice :up: and never heard it before

Hi Kai. The World's a big place. There's a lot of great stuff "out there" that most people never get to see or hear.

I try my bit to remedy that. :)
