This song is an absolute classic which will stand the test of time forever

[@jangle4246]

Another great Burt Bacharach & Hal David song! Seems like this was on the radio almost every time I went for a drive throughout the warm summer of 1968 in Southern California. Interesting that a song featuring trumpeter Herb Alpert's vocal turned out to be one of his very best. Thanks, Harri. Great memories!

[@greybeard2280]

You can just hear Bacharach all over this song. Man was a genius!

[@philippesauvie639]

I haven’t heard this song in a long long time and it is a jewel! The build is incredible and the sentiments so heartfelt and of course that masterful trumpet solo, just outstanding!

[@mikecaetano]

Yes, Alpert sang this. 1968. Some of the trumpet might be overdubbed. He performed the song on a television special and got such a great response afterward that he decided to release it as a single. It soon went to number one on the charts. Herb Alpert co-founded A&M records in 1962. A&M housed Joe Cocker, The Carpenters, Janet Jackson, Cat Stevens, Peter Frampton, Carole King, Styx, Supertramp, and The Police among other acts. Alpert sold A&M to PolyGram in 1987 for a reported $500 million.

[@SweetThing]

And Herb Alpert discovered The Carpenters! :-)

All the trumpet is overdubbed

[@royjohnson465]

@@carltroia6235 ~’Because’ Herb cannot sing and play the trumpet at the same time.

[@christinerobinson9372]

I doubt if the trumpet is overdubbed. He's too good a trumpet player for that.

[@dalem8332]

Love this song! It was a huge #1 song in 1968. Spent a month at #1. It is Herb singing. ♥️🎼🎶🎵🇨🇦

[@lipby]

Classic Burt Bacharach tune. Such a strange song. It sounds sad but it's actually really happy.

[@bigneon_glitter]

Noel Gallagher once called this Burt Bacharach classic "the greatest song ever written". Dusty Springfield's version is one worth checking out.

[@greybeard2280]

Dusty did a great cover on this one. The Original pop diva in her day. I don't think Harri has ever reacted to Dusty. This should be remedied. Every time I hear "Spooky" I just melt.

[@doplinger1]

LOL, the ONE song where Herb actually sings! He’s got a great catalog of hits, no doubt you’ve heard many of them without realizing it. He’s still putting out music too. His album cover for “Whipped Cream and Other Delights” was the thing that dreams were made of for me as a young boy.

[@thomastimlin1724]

When I heard him Play "Tangerine" on that album, it pricked up my ears...as a kid...such beautiful tone and mood you'd swear it was being sung by a pretty girl. He was so much more than just Tijuana Taxi. He played so many different styles on those albums and fooled the people thinking "Tijuana Brass, Mexican music, yahoo" all the time. lol

[@wayne_twentyfive]

Just checked out the album cover, as I hadn't seen it before .. You're right, it's magnificent and would definitely have set many a young lad's imagination on fire !

[@doplinger1]

@@thomastimlin1724 - Tangerine is one of my absolute favorites!

[@thomastimlin1724]

I'm going to see him [and his wife Lani] on my vacation to Tuscon AZ in January at the Tucson Jazz Festival. He's very old!! Gotta admire him going out and still performing, with help. I hope I can meet him in person and thank him for sparking my interest in Trumpet when I joined the school band. I became a music teacher and played trumpet until 10 years ago when I had enough lol. The man is a legend for several reasons. He discovered a lot of talent for his A & M record label, [formed in the early 1960's], including the Carpenters. His partners and producers etc tried to talk him out of the Carpenters. He saw something in them that they had deaf ears to. How dumb. He was right, they were wrong. Good thing he was boss. Lani, his wife, sang for one of those groups he discovered, Brazil 66, who made millions with their records as well. ths famous Burt Bacharach and Hal David [lyricists] wrote the song and many others on Herb's A & M label.

[@joolstrout8036]

My wife introduced me to this song soon after we met 31 years ago and it has a special place in my heart. Thank you for reacting to this.

[@jamiekendrick5057]

I had such a teenage crush on Herb Alpert, especially when he sang this song. Thanks for the memories.

[@davidzimmerli489]

I bought this single when I was still a teenager. I loved it, and I used to sing along with it in my lonely little bedroom, wishing I had a love of my own .... LOL ....

[@deegomez2089]

Herb is so talented. He's the A in A&M Records and gave The Carpenters their big break when other record companies past them up 🎶🎵

[@caesarflickerman9880]

Thank you for treating this song with such polite deference and respect. It truly is a gem that brings fond memories of love one's long gone from this world but whose memory lives on in songs like these.

[@nanp544]

Beautiful memories 💕

[@elainemarsh5170]

I’ve always loved this song. Herb Alpert was not known as a vocalist, but he really pulled this off. ❤️ If you haven’t hit up his many instrumental hits, you’re on for a treat.

[@dlbeal]

Oh such sweet memories. My mom loved this song and we had this album. thank you for the memory.

[@rubroken]

What I love about music is that it can bring back memories both sweet and bittersweet. 1968, 17yo, moved from California to New Jersey.......I felt like I had fallen off the end of the earth. This song and several others( the boxer, Simon & Garfunkel) helped ease the loneliness.....these are the songs that I remember the most from back then. Thank you Harri

Harri, your description of Alpert’s playing is brilliant and spot on! He just rides it like a surfer gently riding the crest of a wave all the way to the shoreline.

[@paulhammond2784]

He won a music award this and his one called Rise. The only one the win an award for an instrumental and a vocal.

[@sonia4641]

As a British child of the '60s I was aware of his 2 big hits here, this one and 'Spanish Flea' but knew nothing more about him. Caught a documentary about him on TV about 10 years ago and was quite shocked to learn just what a musical phenomenon and household name he was in the States; seems almost everyone had Tijuana Brass LPs there! Interesting, super-talented, hard-working and seemingly all-round nice guy! Really please that programme directed me to discover more of his music - I love the Tijuana Brass sound! Better late to the party than never!

[@user-bd6ci6sd5s]

I quite agree ...it's etherealy beautiful very romantic...and it was written by Burt Bacharach and was sung by Herb Alpert!...it's my favorite version of this piece

Brought a year to my eye, my dear old dad loved this song when I was a kid, memories❤️

[@The5thGen]

I like to play this on easy listening gigs. Such a great song.

[@buddystewart2020]

As documented in an A&E Biography episode featuring Bacharach, the recording originated when Alpert, while visiting at Bacharach's office, asked, "Say, Burt, do you happen to have any old compositions lying around that you and Hal never recorded; maybe one I might be able to use?" Alpert said he made it his practice to ask songwriters that particular question: often a "lost pearl" was revealed. As it happened, Bacharach recalled one, found the lyrics and score sheet in his office filing cabinet, and offered it to Alpert: "Here, Herb ... you might like this one."[citation needed] Alpert saw the possibilities in the composition for recording it himself. The composition had a recognizable Bacharach-David feel, a spot for a signature horn solo in the bridge and in the fadeout, and it was an easy song to sing within Alpert's vocal range. Alpert originally sang "This Guy's in Love with You" on a 1968 television special, The Beat of the Brass. In response to numerous viewer telephone calls to the network following the broadcast, Alpert decided that the song should be released as a single recording, and it reached No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in June of that year, remaining in the top position for four weeks. It was not only Alpert's first No. 1 single, but it was also the first No. 1 single for his A&M record label, as well as the first No. 1 in the U.S. for Bacharach & David. The song also spent ten weeks at No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart. For the single's B-side, Alpert chose "A Quiet Tear" from his first album in 1962, The Lonely Bull.

It's interesting how many great musicians are good singers, too.

[@jimvinespresents...8463]

Burt Bacharach is my favorite music-maker (Jeff Lynne of ELO is a very close second). I've loved "This Guy's in Love with You" (this Herb Alpert version) for...well, forever. I'm pretty sure it's my all-time favorite song. Just great. So glad you enjoyed it!

[@viacrucis2509]

It is Herp singing. It was felt that his voice was perfect for this particular song

Herb Albert is still alive at the ripe old age of 86!

[@benmobi]

Herb is the only artist in history to ever have a Number One Hit as a vocalist and a Number One Hit Instrumental. This, and "Rise". He was also the "A" of A&M Records.

[@trumpeterDave]

It is indeed herb singing this song Harri, and playing the trumpet as well in the middle of the song and at the end thanks to the magic of multi-tracking. Herb sang the song for a special in 1968 called the beat of the brass and immediately the phone started ringing so they released it as a single and it spent two months at number 1 from April to June of 1968. The tune was written by the team of Bacharach and David and the piano intro and licks are played by Pete Jolly.

[@BeeLineEast]

Loved the song Taste of Honey by Herb Alpert.

Herb Alpert is a famous trumpet player. He and his band, The Tijuana Brass had many great albums. My older brother was a huge fan. I grew up hearing that trumpet coming from his room. 🌺✌️

[@EdwardWLynn]

Very interesting observation about sax and trumpet players usually being good singers because of using the same kind of breath control and how his singing style is like his trumpet playing style. This is the sort of insightful observation that makes a reaction video worthwhile.

[@stephenulmer3781]

Thats what I love about late 60s early 70s songs, The Horn or trumpet solos ☺

[@Neilsmu]

One of Bacharach most sublime songs. Loved this from when I was a young kid… beautiful 🤗

This song is an all time favourite, it remains the only vocal that I have heard by Herb Alpert but I can recommend 'The Lonely Bull' (El Solo Toro) it has to be one of my fave instro's of all time by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass, definitely worth checking some of his instrumentals...

[@scotttrainer9704]

He always takes me back to my youth and memories of my father.

[@dfo132]

Other Herb Alpert vocals off the top of my head are “Without Her” and “To Wait for Love” from the 1969 album Warm, and “Save the Sunlight”, a duet with his wife Lani Hall, on his 1974 comeback album You Smile, the Song Begins.

good idea to take his word. i was born in 1950 and loved this song. first time i've ever heard even a suggestion he wasn't signing it.....first time i heard him was 'the lonely bull' which was a great instrumental. they were big back in the day.

I've been a fan of Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass from the time I was 11...nice to see someone else experiencing his great muical ability. Although I don't think he's a great singer, it works here. But his amazing arrangements are incredible. He originally didn't want to sing it, but Bacgarach said he was perfect for it because he sounded like just an ordinary guy in love.

Herb Alpert has had an incredible life, I never knew how much he had his hands in the biz, he never meant to be a singer, but yet had a hit, and never meant to be a pop song artist , but had more hits then the Beatles in the 60s, also was half owner of A&M records, and know a famous sculptur, what a life, to be free and create.

[@andrewclayton4181]

His Harri - great choice! I've got a couple of his records. One of them has this as the title track, and on the other side he sings a song called Without her. It's not bad, but not in the same league as this Bacharach number. I've also got the Herb Alpert Christmas album, and he sings a couple on there. The Christmas Song ( Chestnuts roasting by an open fire....) and another called The bell that couldn't jingle. I've also got a cd, but I can't remember the tracks on it and which ones he sings on. He did sing, and play trumpet, and had a band, that's why his stuff sounds so consistently good. He knew what he was doing. Thanks for the posting!

[@nolimit7959]

Perhaps 'Without her' isn't as good as that said tune, however it does come pretty dang close in me opinion- it's certainly Worth a listen though!!!

Saw Herb Alpert and his wife Lani Hall (who sang with Sergio Mendes) last year. Awesome musician and great businessman with A&M records. Also a terrific painter. They are going to be doing a concert at Ronnie Scott’s soon I think.

[@roymoore3156]

His album “A Taste of Honey” was the first album of his I bought, and it’s very very nice! Just terrific music, and considering he was competing at the time with the British Invasion, as it’s called, he stood his ground with the best of the best, as it turned out! Great music just IS, and stands alone. Back in the day, music shows usually had an opening act, a pre-band before the main event. Several times I went to shows that after the first band played the crowd only wanted to hear more of the pre-band and to hell with the reason you bought the ticket to begin with. Example, the brand new band, at the time, opening for the Edgar Winter Group was another British master, BAD COMPANY. After hearing them in this debut tour, all we wanted was to hear more of them. Winters band did take the stage, and it took a bit of time, but we warmed up to his musical genius as well. Another was when, at my first concert after high school...Rare Earth was the headliner band, the lights dimmed in the coliseum, and the announcer said, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, from the great state of Texas, welcome, ZZ Top...oh my God! From their first note you could tell these guys were something special! Rare Earth was great as well, but there wasn’t always enough time between acts to process what was just heard and experienced.

[@tonydelapa1911]

This is baby making music 😂 Many of Alpert’s albums were instrumental and phenomenal. He has done pretty well in business too; he is the “A” in A & M Records, Inc.
