Notes:
Not exactly classical music by any means, but ambitious nonetheless. Featured are Alpert arrangements of the Motown hit "The Happening", "Love So Fine", and "With A Little Help From My Friends". Featured is a tune called "Bud", dedicated to Ervan "Bud" Coleman, who had recently passed away from surgery complications. (He penned quite a few TJB hits, and was a member of Baja Marimba Band as well.) The closing track on this album is a whopper: an arrangement of Bizet's Carmen. What's unique is that this arrangement echoes the styles of "Taste Of Honey", "Spanish Flea", and "What Now My Love", and finishes with the tag ending lifted from "Tijuana Taxi", including the taxi horn!
