• Track Listing

How has Alpert’s 1982 solo masterpiece languished out of print for more than two decades? Contemplate that as you drink in this bracing cocktail of Mexican and Latin-American sounds: his Top 40 hit "Route 101" plus "Push and Pull," "Margarita," "Fandango," "Aria," "Angel," "California Blues," "Sugarloaf," "Coco Loco (La Guajira)" and more. Following his rise to fame with the Tijuana Brass in the ’60s, Herb mainly focused on running A&M Records with his partner Jerry Moss; this album (which stayed on the pop charts for half a year) was part of his triumphant comeback as a recording artist, and we’re happy to announce its return here in fine remastered form—complete with an essay in the liner notes by Alpert himself!
