The chart-topping LP that started it all wasn’t just Herb’s first album—it was the first album released by A&M Records! Inspired by the brassy fanfare given the bullfighters at a Mexico City bullfight that Alpert attended, this 1962 album introduced the sound that defined an era. Includes "The Lonely Bull (El Solo Toro)," "El Lobo (The Wolf)," "Tijuana Sauerkraut," "Desafinado," "Mexico," "Never on Sunday," "Struttin’ with Maria," "Let It Be Me," "Acapulco 1922" and "Limbo Rock."
