Much respect to Herb Alpert. An amazing entertainer, businessman, and compassionate human being. Though, when he says "this is one of our newer songs" without crediting composer Chuck Mangione it doesn't sit right. His audience might mistakenly believe that this was a TJB original rather than a cover.
"One of our new songs?" Great that Herb Alpert is playing this song, but Um, you may want to mention that Chuck wrote it.... Maybe he did at the end. I didn't hang all the way.
Cool, Dave Frishberg, who I know best from his novelty song My Attorney Bernie, which used to be in regular rotation on the Dr. Demento show. Good song look it up if you're inspired! Well done and entertaining.
Chuck Mangione! I seem to remember that Chuck Mangione, Gato Barbieri and Al DiMeola were all popular at this time? At least they were popular with my oldest sister?
Could you please post Work Song, A Taste of Honey, or Spanish Flea from the 1974 show? I have audio recordings of each and would love to see the video again. Thanks.
