Terrific Trumpeting

Maile Carballo / KUTX

Only balcony seats remain for Monday night’s show at The Paramount Theatre as they welcome trumpet player extraordinaire, Herb Alpert, to Austin. The soon-to-be 89 year-old living legend has five #1 hits, nine grammies, 15 gold records, and, at one point, he outsold the Beatles two to one. Oh, yeah… he is also the co-founder of A&M Records. (He’s the “A”.)

Let’s shine a spotlight on his instrument and hear SONGS FEATURING TERRIFIC TRUMPETING, including from the TP guest of honor.
