Rated 2/10
Fuck you, guy who finished the 1001+ album listening challenge and then submitted this trash to the hall of fame.
Rated 10/10
More sugary brass band please!
Rated 6/10
Exactly what you think it would be. Nothing bad, but would only ever be situational. 2.5/5
Rated 6/10
Best album cover ever
Rated 4/10
The cover is iconic. Sexy, classy, endlessly parodied ( https://www.johncoulthart.com/feuilleton/2011/12/03/cover-versions/ ).
It's held up better than the music, which is pleasant, polished, and completely forgettable. This is easy-listening instrumental pop at its most inoffensive. Nothing about it is bad, but nothing about it sticks either. It just passes through you.
Herb Alpert clearly had talent (his trumpet work on David Baerwald's "A Secret Silken World" proves he could get darker and weirder), but here he's playing it safe. Background music for cocktail parties, designed to be heard but not really listened to.
Rated 5/10
It’s extremely funny that they decided to sex up the album cover that much. I went in expecting something at least a little bit raucous from the brass band, but they somehow got trumpets to make smooth patio music.
