{"product_id":"herb-alpert-tijuana-brass-herb-alperts-ninth-cd","title":"Herb Alpert \/ Tijuana Brass - Herb Alpert's Ninth","description":"\u003cp\u003eHerb Alpert's Ninth is a 1967 album by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. It reached number 4 on the Billboard charts and spent 18 weeks on the Top 40.[1] It was the last album by the Tijuana Brass to be released in both mono and stereo versions; all albums afterward would be released in stereo only. - It was, as it's title indicated, the ninth album released by the Brass. It's cover, in addition to a number of still photos from Brass concerts, included a pop-culture joke. Ludwig van Beethoven had been a popular topic on T-shirts in the late 1960s. In this case, an illustration of Beethoven was shown apparently wearing a T-shirt with Alpert's face on it. The title was also a play on Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. None of Beethoven's Ninth actually appeared in the album tracks, but another classical work did - a medley of the tunes from the opera Carmen, centering on \"\"Habanera\"\", and also including \"\"cameos\"\" from some of the group's earlier hits - \"\"Spanish Flea\"\", \"\"A Taste of Honey\"\", \"\"Whipped Cream\"\", \"\"What Now My Love\"\", \"\"Zorba The Greek\"\" and \"\"Tijuana Taxi\"\" - worked into the track.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonic Highway","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51566675624231,"sku":"814647020471","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/0640\/5927\/files\/3426612.jpg?v=1783101420","url":"https:\/\/www.corkyscoffee.com\/products\/herb-alpert-tijuana-brass-herb-alperts-ninth-cd","provider":"Corkys Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
