Music reviews of Beat of the Brass (Spkg)
Music Review: TJB '68
Rating: 5 Stars
Originally released in 1968, The Beat of the Brass (stereo only) might be one of the best albums from Herb Alpert and his Tijuana Brass. Most of this album is very entertaining. It contains such gems as Monday, Monday, A Beautiful Friend, Panama, Slick, The Robin and of course, This Guys In Love With You. This album just flows from start to finish.
01. Monday, Monday - 10/10 I love the Bob Edmondson trombone work here; in fact he is at his peak all the way through this album.
02. A Beautiful Friend - 9/10 All I can say is, really pretty. Herb's is superb on his horn, the flute work is gorgeous, and there's just the right amount of drums.
03. Cabaret - 9/10 Edmondson's trombone work and Nick Ceroli's drums make this work.
04. Panama - 10/10 Great work by Edmondson again and by the amazing Julius Wechter on the chimes.
05. Belz Mein Shtetele Belz (My Home Town) - 5/10 A punching the clock type number. It's alright.
06. Talk To The Animals - 2/10 This song worked for the TV special but, is a bit awkward on the album.
07. Slick- 10/10 I just love those chord changes in the chorus. A very cool tune.
08. She Touched Me - 9/10 This is a much underestimated little gem.
09. Thanks For The Memory - 8/10 Another good toe-taper.
10. The Robin - 9/10 - A fabulous instrumental that's tucked towards the back of the album.
11. This Guys In Love With You - 10/10 It was great in '68 and still sounds fresh to this day. This was the perfect blending of song and performance which produced the first number one single for Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass.
This is a classic album with great sound quality and so it gets 5 stars for the music and packaging!
