| PLEASE...we need more Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass!! |
Don't get me wrong - I was totally floored when I saw that you had released many of their core albums. I am very thankful that you decided to re-release the originals on CD. Thank you for immortalizing these tour de force albums.
Also, I could not believe how crisp the recordings were - clearer than when I heard them on vinyl! I felt as if Herb, his Horn, and his talented gang were right in the room!
However, we are still missing classics such as "The Brass Are Coming" (I have the original vinyl record, which is better than nothing) containing the masterpiece, "The Maltese Melody", "Greatest Hits Vol. 2" with the gem, "Zazueira" and the incredible first album with Hugh Masekela (the one with 'Skokiaan").
The TJB are back in a big way, thanks to you. I hope to see these albums, as well.
THANK YOU for making our musical world brighter, a lot brighter, by giving us more of the greatest trumpet player this world has ever seen!
