(12,626 posts)This is reminiscent of Herb Alpert and Tijuana Brass, but maybe even more antiseptic. (True confession: I was obsessed with TJB starting with The Lonely Bull, and probably still have copies of their first four or five LPs.) I didnt realize there were other bands mining the same veins. And trying to popularize the fluegelhorn no less!
Heres a nice profile of King Richard (Dick Behrke):
