Herb Alpert has come to mean many things to many people. To generations of music fans, Alpert is the dark-haired, trumpet-playing songmaker whose name instantly brings to mind memorable songs like "The Lonely Bull," "A Taste of Honey," "This Guy’s in Love with You" and "Rise." These are but a few of the tunes Alpert recorded either as leader of the legendary Tijuana Brass or as an artist in his own right, yielding 5 #1 popular hits, 8 Grammy awards, 14 Platinum and 15 gold albums – plus a staggering 72 million albums sold worldwide.

Now Herb Alpert and his wife Lani Hall have found new and thrilling emotional possibilities on their latest collection. Their natural grace together blends their vocal and instrumental gifts in a magical pairing. Their first studio CD in nearly a decade, I Feel You, shows that this artistic couple continues to creatively breathe new life into their signature sound. The outcome of their complementary philosophy is 14 songs that marry the essence of their shared gifts.
