''!!Going Places!!'' is the fifth album by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass and, along with their prior album, ''Whipped Cream and Other Delights'', is one of their most popular releases. It was released by A&M Records on all formats: LP, 8-track, cassette, open reel and eventually CD, and was reissued in 2005 by the Shout!Factory label as part of the Herb Alpert Signature Series. The song "Spanish Flea", composed by Alpert's friend and fellow mariachi band leader Julius Wechter, was one of several Brass tunes that saw regular use on "The Dating Game". The single version of "Tijuana Taxi" had more of the bicycle-horn sound effects than the album version did. "Tijuana Taxi" and "Spanish Flea" would both be reprised as part of the "Carmen" medley in ''Herb Alpert's Ninth''. The B-side of the "Taxi" single, "Zorba the Greek", was edited for length and had live-concert sound effects added. "A Walk in the Black Forest" was a cover of a better-known version of the song that same year, by Horst Jankowski. That same track would briefly serve two years later as the theme of a short-lived game show, ''Reach for the Stars''. The Piggly Wiggly supermarket chain also used it as a theme for its TV commercials. The group's title reverted to its original name for this album, after its second, third and fourth albums had been listed as "Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass". While the first four Tijuana Brass albums had been done by Alpert backed by studio musicians, demands for live appearances had dictated that Alpert put together an actual touring band. The songs on this album are a mixture of sessions featuring Alpert's touring band and other session musicians, according to the liner notes in the Shout!Factory CD release. ==Track listing== #"Tijuana Taxi" (Ervan Coleman) – 2:05 #"I'm Getting Sentimental Over You" (George Bassman) – 1:59 #"More And More Amor" (Sol Lake) – 2:44 #"Spanish Flea" (Julius Wechter) – 2:07 #"Mae" (Riz Ortolani) – 2:27 #"3rd Man Theme" (Anton Karas) – 2:28 #"Walk, Don't Run" (Johnny Smith) – 1:50 #"Felicia" (John Pisano) – 2:45 #"And the Angels Sing" (Johnny Mercer, Ziggy Elman) – 2:34 #"Cinco De Mayo" (Chris Montez) – 2:15 #"A Walk In The Black Forest" (Horst Jankowski) – 1:48 #"Zorba The Greek" (Mikis Theodorakis) – 4:25 Issued twice on Open Reel tape, the first edition (AMB-112, distributed by Ampex on behalf of A&M Records) presents the tracks in the same order as the LP. Because of the running time differences, Side A includes a significant blank space at the beginning of the program, which allowed for a shorter break at the side change. Side A: #"Tijuana Taxi" – 2:05 #"I'm Getting Sentimental Over You" – 1:59 #"More And More Amor" – 2:44 #"Spanish Flea" – 2:07 #"Mae" – 2:27 #"The Third Man Theme" – 2:28 Side B: #"Walk, Don't Run" – 1:50 #"Felicia" – 2:45 #"And the Angels Sing" – 2:34 #"Cinco De Mayo" – 2:15 #"A Walk In The Black Forest" – 1:48 #"Zorba The Greek" – 4:25 In 1968, A&M reissued the open reel tape (OR-4112) with an altered track sequence to balance the running times of the two sides. Side A: #"Tijuana Taxi" – 2:05 #"Walk, Don't Run" – 1:50 #"Spanish Flea" – 2:07 #"More And More Amor" – 2:44 #"A Walk In The Black Forest" – 1:48 #"Zorba The Greek" – 4:25 Side B: #"Mae" – 2:27 #"Cinco De Mayo" – 2:15 #"Felicia" – 2:45 #"I'm Getting Sentimental Over You" – 1:59 #"And the Angels Sing" – 2:34 #"The Third Man Theme" – 2:28 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Going Places (Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
