LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Marimbaist and ex-Tijuana Brass member Julius Wechter almost outdid his former boss (and label owner) Herb Alpert with his nine-piece blend of pop, jazz and Latin influences, hitting the charts four times and providing the late ’60s with one of its grooviest soundtracks. But, aside from a very expensive Japanese import, there’s never been any collection of their classic Almo and A&M sides. So we’ve selected 25 of their finest—with some changes from the Japanese collection, mind you—and added some notes (featuring interviews with the Wechter family) to create an essential package of ’60s instrumental pop. A 'Collectors’ Choice Music' exclusive!
