Herb Alpert's inner jazzman has always been integrated within something more significant: a haunting, personal trumpet signature riding atop a melange of American and/or Latin components.

Herb Alpert and Lani Hall (Jazz Alley) Trumpeter Herb Alpert (the A in A&M Records, his share of which he sold in 1987) can use Benjamins for toilet paper: He's moved over 72 million records while scoring eight Grammys, 14 platinum albums, and 15 gold ones.
