whipped cream & other delights epidemic

herb alpert's tijuana brass

at least 97% of the time i go record digging for for as long as i can remember, no matter how large or small the cache of records, this record shows up most of the time multiple copies.... is this an epidemic in your town? or what is the record you come across more than any other?

the funny thing is i will never buy it... the cover is classic and sexy as hell.. but i refuse to purchase.

Every copy I find I jerk off to that old broad and cum on the cover then I sell it back to the merchant

herb alpert sold a HELLUVA LOT OF RECORDS in his day...



the only time i ever cop one is of its sealed... i also have some boxset from tijuana brass also..






one of those albums has a BIGGIE sample on it if i remember correctly...

i think it was 'RISE' that biggie sampled

Yeah, this shit turns up at every Goodwill and every Half Price Books. Any used place that doesn't really specialize in selling records.

The novelty def wore off on finding this after the first time... see this in thrifts along with Sing Along With Mitch Miller and Saturday Night Fever LPs....

there all different they have hidden tracks.....AHAHAHAHA naaw theres some of those records that are worth something , you have to check the price guide at least the last time i checked a PG ayr or two ago. there some special thing about it .

yeah i got a box set too of his and burt too.

F'real. It's not necessarily "crate-digging" material, but if you want to study how to make insanely catchy melodies that you can't help but get stuck in your head, Herb Alpert is the muvaf*ing man at it. Plus, "This Guy's In Love With You" rocks.

This is like James Last. Everywhere I go there is 5 -10 James Last records. I never touched em, but then I seen someone else on here mention him, did he put out something I should pick up?

I'm curious about that too. Every time I go to a boot sale there are so many James Last & Herb Alpert (Nana Maskouri is another one) recs but always avoid them like the plague (ok I think I do have one Herb Alpert rec somewhere but I got it for some brass one shots). See a lot of George Benson too but it's always his 80s stuff.

i see al hirt a lot (i think thats his name..yall kno who im talkin bout) and the exile joint w the hand holdin sumthin w fire on it.

make no mistake
H.A. sold many many records back in the day.
Then he went on to become an industry big wig.


A lot like jay-z has done in modern time.

Every thrift shop I go to has some Lawrence Welk and that "Sing Along" with Mitch Miller shit.

thas pretty clean compare to the ones i have seen.

You know what's crazy though, what if the most insane break of all time -- "Funky Drummer" or "Apache" style is on a Gene Audrey record. The Hip-Hop world may never know!
