Herb Alpert - Rise

"Rise" is a song written by Andy Armer and Randy Badazz Alpert, and first recorded by trumpeter Herb Alpert. The instrumental track was included on Alpert's solo album "Rise" and released as a single in 1979. It reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in October of that year and remained in the top position for two weeks. Herb Alpert thus became the first (and only) artist to reach the top of the Hot 100 with a vocal performance ("This Guy's in Love with You", 1968) as well as an instrumental performance. "Rise" also spent one week atop the adult contemporary chart. "Rise" was successful on the other charts, peaking at number four on the R&B chart and number seventeen on the dance chart. The recording also received a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance. Songwriters Andy Armer and Randy Badazz Alpert were both nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition. The single, "Rise" has sold more then a million copies.

My parents LOVED Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass back in the 60's. As kids, we grew up listening to this great music. Parties in our basement always had TJB and Sergio Mendez & Brazil 66 playing.

[@nolatuazon9641]

This is so good.

[@Headroom23]

This song to me is a feel good love song. It's a full force, no nonsense song that makes the listener feel the vibes that could only bring pride and love. Mr. Albert's performance shines through with gusto, as he lets his trumpet do the "singing". Overall, this song should sell more today and introduce the Meleniums to the sounds that could only be Herb Alpert.

i dance in bed-or wheelchair-move what can

[@MrNathan791]

I agree. This song, I could dance to all night long. As a bassist I picked up on that bass groove the first time I heard this song. But of course it’s Herb’s trumpet that bring it through out the whole song.

[@rickfountain3064]

I can listen to this song over and over and over... it is so soothing...

In my opinion, Herb Alpert is a musician's musician. One of the best of all time, certainly in the modern era. So professional, cool and technical but soo much feeling as well.

[@nothinglessthanepic9902]

I loved this song when I was a kid and still like it today. I had the 33 record and I used to get close to the needle to listen. Nothing could beat that sound of the needle on the record. Thanks Herb!

[@Sandra-cm1du]

What a great song. I was a little kid and this song would come on the radio. What a great time..... the 1960's were ....for great music ! Thank you Al. : )

60’s??? This came out in ‘79

@@JBkaufmanninen Hahaha... lets give her our understanding and correct her mistake, maybe shes just referring to another song.

[@cahg3871]

Love that opening bass line leading to the horn solo.The opening is bouncy and warm,but the horn is melancholy to start then leads to an upbeat feeling of hope.And then it doubles back to the bass line.Pure magic by Herb Albert.
