About this album

Herb Alpert's Ninth is a polished late-1960s showcase for Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass, balancing Latin jazz, pop and easy listening with characteristic лёгкость and melodic charm. Issued in 1967, it arrived during the group’s peak commercial era, when Alpert’s trumpet-led arrangements were a staple of mainstream American radio. The album mixes playful cover versions and contemporary material, including interpretations of My Heart Belongs to Daddy and With A Little Help From My Friends, alongside the jaunty A Banda. It reflects the band’s knack for turning familiar songs into crisp, upbeat instrumental statements that helped define crossover instrumental pop in the 1960s.
