After decades of being staples at flea markets and yard sales across the continent, the LPs Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass made in the '60s have been reissued with their original verve undiminished and sounding remarkably fresh. Taking things one step further is a new set of remixes. Those putting their hands are the faders include John King of the Dust Brothers, Mocean Worker, and Medeski, Martin & Wood. Alpert himself was an active participant in this project, adding some new trumpet solos amidst the snaky grooves and incessant beats. Not only will those familiar with the originals be dazzled by their transformations, but anyone new to these erstwhile million sellers will fall right in with the rhythmic drive and melodic hooks. --David Greenberger

Album Description
The Lounge Classic Remixed!

Once upon a time, there was a guy with a horn, a girl in whipped cream and a bunch of songs that became American classics. Now, 40 years later, Herb Alpert is back, with new solos mixed in alongside even newer grooves by some of the most innovative artists around. There's even a brand-new girl on the cover.

Herb Alpert had a lasting influence on music and pop culture. The original Whipped Cream & Other Delights LP spent 8 weeks at #1 on the Billboard charts and more than two years in the Top 40, and earned three GRAMMY® awards-the title track even took on a life of its own as the theme song for The Dating Game. Now, with Whipped Cream & Other Delights Rewhipped, some of the artists he's influenced have created a fun and modern tribute to his landmark album. Rewhipped, indeed.

The artists involved include Thievery Corporation, Medeski Martin & Wood, John King, Mocean Worker, DJ Foosh, Camara Kambon, Anthony Marinelli and Ozomatli.

Customer Reviews

enjoyed it
enjoyed it. was a big fan of Herb Alpert and TJB. Saw them in concert in 1968 I think it was. Still have all those TJB Records. Ripped em to cd.

Delicious Ear Candy
Great stuff! From start to finish nice and smooth. Everyone I've played it for has taken an interest.

Splendid!
I am thoroughly pleased with the purchase of this album. There aren't many albums these days I'd pay money for, this one I would buy again in a second.

I have the Lonely Bull and like the old Mexican brass style and such, but this remix is BRILLIANT. I must say that I am familiar with the works of Thievery Corp. and John Smith (Dust Bros.) so I wasn't particularly shocked with what I heard. I was overwhelmingly impressed! I have since acquired the original and must say it's much too campy for my tastes, almost dated. Half the tracks on it sound like game show theme songs.

The old version aside, this album stands on its own. I feel bad that it hasn't gotten a chance from some people who felt it has somehow tainted the original. I don't know what they were expecting. Like another reviewer said, if they want that old TJB sound... Go listen to some old TJB.

My sympathies towards this unfair rap had nothing to do with my five-star rating. I am rating this album based on it and it alone. The tracks are well produced, the sounds are rich and deep and the songs are coherent to each other. They aren't too different as you might otherwise expect from a multiple-artist re-hash.

You owe it to yourself and to good music to buy this album. Listen to the samples if you aren't sure (that's what they're there for).
