If there was a "righteous bro" award in the world of music, I would nominate Herb Alpert.
This dude is waay beyond cool and he's one of the class acts in the industry.
There was a lot going on in my life as 1979 drew to a close and, at first, all I remember about
"Rise" was a bunch of people dancing on a beach on my television.
It didn't take long after that for me, and a lot of people, to see
"Rise" as one of the great instrumentals of the 20th century.
