Editorial Review:
Album Description:
In November 1966, Alpert released S.R.O., his fourth album to place in the Top 10 in 1966, ultimately reaching the #2 spot. Includes the hit singles 'Work Song' and 'Mame.'
Each album in the Herb Alpert Signature Series features meticulously remastered sound, deluxe packaging, detailed liner notes, and an intro by Herb Alpert containing personal recollections and anecdotes.

Reading the other reviews listed here it is interesting to see what other listeners find of interest in not only the TJB but the product Alpert put in the market place.
For six musicians other than Herb, it is remarkable any albums were made let alone be as successful as they were and are. Herb explains that he never recorded any song unless it 'moved' him, never were the songs ever written down, never were the songs played prior to being recorded; in fact he mentions renting ...

Great songs, arrangements and performances and one of my favorite TJB albums.
However, what's up with the mastering on this one. There is heavy bass and drum distortion on several tracks, most noticable on "I Will Wait for You". Perhaps it was the original master. If not for this, SRO could have possibly been the best in the Signature Series reissues.

Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass remain one the best musical groups to come out of the 1960s; their "hey-day" from the 1960s still goes strong! This CD entitled S.R.O. (Standing Room Only) offers you an excellent assortment of eleven instrumental tracks as well as one song to which they sing the lyrics, "Mame." They may not be the greatest singers I ever heard; but their awesome, infectiously catchy melodies and relentless happiness and optimism more than compensate for this disappointment.

This album is considered by many to be the best Tijuana Brass record ever recorded. It certainly is a great recording. This album is very consistant. Obviously, this is the Brass' most jazziest album yet, recording Nat Adderley's The Work Song, the dixieland, Wall Street Rag, the swinging Mexican Road Race, the standards I Will Wait For You, Flamingo, Our Day Will Come, and the tune made famous by Wes Montgomery, For Carlos, during which the Brass shifts time signatures with ease and a nice trombone solo by ...

Originally released in late 1966, S.R.O. (Standing Room Only) might be one of the most rockin' albums from Herb Alpert and his Tijuana Brass. Most of this album is very entertaining. It contains such gems as Mexican Road Race, I Will Wait For You, Bean Bag, The Work Song, Mame, Don't Go Breaking My Heart and of course, Flamingo.
But what were Herb and Shout Factory thinking when they released this CD! What a blown opportunity to give the fans something more. The TJB albums were always around 30 ... Read More
