"The Work Song" #18 7/23/1966

Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass were on quite a streak in the mid 60's, as they had one or more albums in the Top 10 LP chart for 81 straight weeks. Pretty impressive, when you consider the competition in all forms of music in that era. Herb and the TJB were one of the top easy listening acts of the 60's. This instrumental was written by the brother of jazz legend Cannonball Adderley.

Two songs---THE SNAKE by Al Wilson and LOCOMOTIVE BREATH by Jethro Tull---are written around the same chord structure and also share some of the same melody lines as well.
