This Guy’s In Love With You - Herb Alpert

This song was written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David and was recorded by Herb Alpert. Alpert's filmed version of "This Guy's in Love with You" appeared on April 22, 1968 as a part of his CBS television special The Beat of the Brass. In the film, which has a studio recording of the song as its soundtrack, Alpert can be seen walking around in various natural environments in Malibu, California (including a woodland and a beach), singing the song to his wife Sharon. In response to numerous viewer telephone calls to the network following the broadcast, Alpert decided that the song should be released as a single recording. Alpert's commercially-released recording featured a slightly different vocal performance than the recording used as the film soundtrack in the television special. His single reached No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in June of that year, remaining in the top position for four weeks. It was not only Alpert's first No. 1 single, but it was also the first No. 1 single for his A&M record label, as well as the first No. 1 in the U.S. for Bacharach & David. The song also spent ten weeks at No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart.

@@livefromthekitchencounterKen is trying to embrace the rock star life and be a diva and be late to the recording session. Then show up all strung out. The band had to go on without him.

Great tune! 🎶 🎵 Did Ken get kicked out of the band, or on strike for more 💴 💵

Ha, I just didn't want to learn or play all those Major&th chords. I was behind the camera on this one!!
