The instrumental track was included on Alpert's solo album Rise and released as a single in 1979. It reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in October of that year and remained in the top position for two weeks. Herb Alpert thus became the first (and only) artist to reach the top of the Hot 100 with a vocal performance ("This Guy's in Love with You", 1968) as well as an instrumental performance. "Rise" also spent one week atop the adult contemporary chart. "Rise" was successful on the other charts: It peaked at number four on the soul chart, and number seventeen on the disco chart.The recording also received a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance.

That moment you realize your parents music was cooler than yours 😢
My father worked for (The real) Sears. The record department was adjacent to the TV and Stereo department. Every time a. New album came out he’d bring it home. This music is the soundtrack of my childhood.
I love your post!
I remember buying 45's at the Sears at the mall.
Thanks for the lovely reminder ❤
Before the mall, growing up in downtown Atlanta, I remember going to the largest department store in the area. It was the Sears. It was, idk 3 or 4 stories. It was huge !
It was amazing❤@@mindakahn9964
Exactly! It was. I'm a 68 year old witness to ur words. Thank u
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🫵🏾👍🏾👍🏾👊🏾
My mom agrees,.totally. 👍👌😊
If you're still listening to this in 2023 you really understand good music. God bless.
Oh yeah!!👍
It’s 2024🎉

2024 Baby! Classics never go out of style.
Amen, Brother!
if you are listening in 2024 - you just levelled up - FEEL it
We didn’t know it then.music that brought everyone together. Simpler, more organic times. Great memories made.
@@debbieweber8314 totally.
"Rise"! I feel helluva better when I hear this. I'm 68 and having beautiful flashbacks, seriously lol. Love this ballad from Herb and the Brass
❤bye from Modena, Italy
Listening 6/5/24
It's 2024 and I'm still listening to this masterpiece ❤ and mind you I'm only 23 years old
The most favorite memory of my mother was when my mother, my sisters, and myself were dancing to this song back in the summer of 79. For the first five years of my life my mother was a drug addict, and she had a bad overdose that year. The county almost took us away from her, and the only way she could get us back was if she got clean. She came home, and we turned on the radio...She heard this song, grabbed us, and started dancing. That was the happiest I ever saw her, and there were few times she was happy, but she was so glad to be with us. My mother stayed clean for us, and she never used again. But this song will always be special
God bless you all. Great story!
Mike Chambers thank you!
PAISLEY PRINCESS it’s fab! Xxx
Thank you for being vulnerable enough to share!
PAISLEY PRINCESS That is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing your memories. We all need to hear that love does conquer all.
Back in 1980 I put on this song for my 85-year old grandmother, who was raised on a farm in Czechoslovakia. Didn't speak much English, and never listened to music. When the intro started, she perked up and proclaimed, "It makes me want to dance." So, we did!
Thanks, Mr. Alpert.
That is a great memory!

Dear T B, If your grandmother is still around, cherish her. Nobody loves you more than she does.
False propaganda
@@kevinenriquez688 If it's false propaganda, does that mean it's true? (scratching head)
Ticho !
I was 14 when listening to this song. I always saw my late dad dance to this song while he was working. Now i'm 57,Im now getting the vibe. The truth is, music never gets old.
Your dad had good taste
I was 17 and on my to USMC boot camp.
My mother and father danced to this every Sunday morning
Very true this. I'm 59 and I love the songs from the 60's 70's. Real music 💯
Wow that's a beautiful memory man, let's pay homage to your Father he introduced you to a good song👊👊❤️❤️!!
This is my favorite notorious big sample. Without hypnotized I would have never found the absolute masterpiece
Biggie knew to only sample the best of the best.
Agree!
I agree
I was trying to remember where I heard that sample.
I looked it up after hearing Hypnotized as well.
If you are listening to this in #2020, you have class in music. Give yourself a pat on the back.
Right back atcha, Big Double B.! Peace.
My oh my, Didn't he refine the sounds.
Good times
My neighbor would joke about how this was the unofficial anthem of black people! (and I think Herb Alpert is Jewish)
@@NBUltra187 hahahahahaha..... truth.
Saw Herb Alpert in concert last week in Austin--he's 80 and still rocking that trumpet, a national treasure!
Wiki said he's 87
Get out really? We saw Buddy Guy at legends in Chicago in early 2020. He was 83 and still rowdy as can be.
Amazing
Did he play this tune?
God bless him. He's eternal and will live 43v3r in our hearts and ears and smooth skin and relatable just by sound, what a genius, what a pro!! A++ aplusplus winwin double win win²
This is what this generation needs
FACTS!!!!!
No doubt i never appreciated music like this till now in my 30s
Yeahhhhhh This Generation Needs Great Music
this music right here makes me wanna throw a 70s party......whos down?
With you all the way bud
🙋♀️
Wait … let me find my leisure suit!
1979
I'll be there!!!
My husband loved this music. He pass away 3 years ago. Loving your memory my love enjoying this music. RIP Ignacio. From Mexico.
Venga! Arriba ese ánimo Elo! Te mando un abrazo!!!
So sorry for your loss.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hermoso recuerdo , q.e.p.d 🙏🏻❤️
I am sorry for your loss. I am glad memories of this beautiful music remind you of him. I am that way with my Amy. Peace
I was lucky enough to be around when Rise came out and even luckier to still be here to enjoy it in 2020. Great piece.
Or not so lucky. Wouldn’t you rather be young?
I saw Herb live doing Rise, back in the day. Excellent concert!
Did it come out in 79?
@@nycgirl780 - Yes. The summer of 79.
I hear in January, 1980.First place Billboard.Here in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.Master piece.12/1/2021.
I just found this gem by chance and I’m absolutely blown away that this is where “Hypnotize” originated from. That drop at 3:23 is instantly recognizable and this has got to be the original
Yes it actually is, he just loop that actual part and decrease the speed, loop a bar, and add an effect
Yes sir. I recalled that Biggie rap sampling this song.
💯 i did a double take when i heard that 😅 had to explain it to my husband
Good sample
Same! I was just listening to this... I'm sure I've heard it before and never paid attention, but when THAT riff came through... I knew instantly. Solid. Gold.
2023 and this is still my jam...as I sit with tears in my eyes because of all that we as people have been or are going through it is so emotional but we must RISE...you, me, we can do it...RISE above that which is pulling us down...
AMEN AMEN AMEN!!!!!!!!!
Me too, nothing moves my emotions, and stimulates memories like great timeless music. ❤
Amen
Herb Herb Herb, can't you see, sometimes your music just hypnotize me.
Well that part would be from la di la di
I can listen to him all day and night. Dancing to his awesome music 🎶. The 2 step with the one you love 💕.
@@valenciablack5420 I don’t really think you know what he’s referring to he’s talking about hypnotise by biggie smalls that sampled this song so yh
😂😂😂 Biggie snatched that gold quick.
@@dinasmith2613 Biggie rode it well tho👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
This was a song that my mom Loved! She had an Aneurysm rupture in her brain in 1979 I was 14. It took months for me to be able to listen to this song. By the grace of god she survived for another 33 yrs. Paralyzed and limited communication. I sure do miss her she would dance and was out familia's best cook! I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU MOM YESTERDAY TODAY AND TOMORROW
Hugs!
wow - I'm glad she survived in '79, though had some tough times but I'm sure you made it better for her....
:(
God Bless!
Condolences to you and prayers
I must have listened to this song at least 100 times and here I am a year later still listening ....10 Nov 2022.... who else is still loving Herb Alpert and his gorgeous irresistible not to swing and sway to music
@AndyBenitez Hi There...hope you're keep well.
I'm here still loving this. January 2023
LOVING IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!
Been living this since its release some 50 years ago💖🎶🎵🎺💜
Whipped cream and other delights was one of the first LPs bought with my own money when it came out. I was 16, my mom didn't like the cover.
I used to play this on my sax. My wife loves it. ❤
I first heard it on General Hospital, when Luke and Laura were doing their thing. Haaaa
Me too!! I was 4 years old, and my mom must've been watching General Hospital cause I remember watching Luke and Laura and this song was playing! Funny how certain things stick with you at such a young age!
I remember when Luke and Laura were popular on General Hospital too, I believe it was 1980 or 1981? I can still picture that soap in my memory.
I also remember hearing this on General Hospital and as a child I thought what a beat. Flash forward I heard it recently on Yacht ⛵ rock on Cable and it still sounded marvelous, even better. Ty HERB for a classic song, Soothing song I will never forget.
3:24 iconic change up. That riff rocked two worlds.
So I just speak my piece, keep my piece

This song takes me back in time and it still sounds fantastic here in 2023!! Great trumpet, piano and smokin’ hot bass playing!!!
Listening in 2023! Love this. Reminds me so much of my dad, growing up in Miami 1980s without a care in the world. Love you dad, RIP dad i miss you so much.
It is impossible to walk down the street listening to this song and not exude monumental swag
So true...
: )
I was working a late nite call at work (no fun) and pandora kicked this on my Chuck Mangione channel. I was exuding monumental swag in my chair while working the problem at work. Made a bad night good.
Going to play this walking on the treadmill at the gym. 😀
My brother is is a generation Z- the music he listens to today is damaging my ears.
40 years later and smooth as glass. Doesn't get any better than this.
That's rite
I FULLY agree
agreed, got much air play outta Philly (WDAS 105.3) every morning before high school
Truth
No. It doesn't I swear it don't. I swear to GOD!
FOR MT DAD WHEN I WAS A LIL GIRL MY DAD WOULD COME HOME FROM WORK, " CAR HAULER TRUCK DRIVER" MAKING A BEAUTIFUL LIFE FOR MY MOTHER AND US KIDS. HE'D COME HOME AND PLAY THIS SONG. BACK THEN, IT WAS ON A PEARL ALBUM , SHE ONE DAY TOOK IT OFF THE RECORD PLAYER AND BROKE IT ....SMASHED IT.. said IM SICK OF THIS SONG... HE LOVED IT.. ❤
TO THIS DAY ....IM NOW 50 YRS Old WILL NOT EVER FORGET What SHE DID ... HE DANCED SHE MADE FUN OF HIM, CALLING HIM AWFUL NAMES.... . ALWAYS TAKING THE JOY AWAY WITH NEGATIVE ENERGY...
I DEDICATE THIS ALWAYS AND FOREVER TO MY FATHER RODERICK K BIRDZELL. MY DAD....
IM STILL LOOKING FOR THE LP SHE SMASHED AND BTW YOUR A GREAT DANCER LISTENER COMPASSIONATE UNDERSTANDING KIND HEARTED FATHER ❤ I LOVE YOU LOVE ALWAYS YOUR DAUGHTER, BRANDI COLYN BIRDZELL
Some people just carry a lot of anger. Sorry, babe.
Awesome story. Reminds me of my own marriage. Life is complex and there's often a lot of unnecessary pain, but if your dad was anything like me, he accomplished his mission. He managed to imprint onto you a special part of himself that lives on in your heart beyond the LP or anything physical. Now it's time for you to pass it down to your children.
It’s 2021 and I still love this song I won’t tell my age just glad I made it this far.
Have you heard Herb Albert sing ' The look of love" Great job!
Love this song back in the Day when I was just a teenager!!!!! 55 going on 56 wow!!!!!!Iit still sounds so good!!!!!!!😥😥😥😥

No worries. Music, good music is timeless.

1979 classic
Can you believe I requested this song on Classic Hits 106 and they have never heard of the song or have it. It's like what planet have they been living on....right?
That bassline is an unstoppable force of nature. Especially in the ending section of the song.
Biggie biggie can't you see hahahaha.... awesome music
@@reyesboys4 you got it !!
Abraham Laboriel ... Most popular and holy funkiness of the era, and still has it in spades to this day! #Hallelujah
Louis Johnson was also the bass player on this album
100percent
I'm listening in 2020. NO matter how old, this is so cool.
El gran maestro. del metal....
The vibe is undeniable yet so underrated.
Agreed. I was a kid when it came out. Still one of my favorites.
Kiss and Make Up from Club Future Nostalgia 2020.
Yes cooler than a fan lol I'm listening to it right now ☺❤
So many artists sampled this classic. My dad would listen to my rap then show me where they get their beats from. God I miss this cool times. RIP DAD love and miss you. 😢
Nice. I do this with my babies. They're absolutely shocked at how many songs they listen to that have sampled another song, also how I can take them right to the original.
I'm 72 and still crazy for Herb Alpert! And, yes, his music makes you want to dance!
Timeless music. I’m 48 and still loving this masterpiece! Real music never goes out of style!

Come out in summer 1979 Iwas18 years old, now 43 years later I still alive ready for summer 2022 what a memories, I remember, I remember!!!⛈🌵🐕🌙
While listening to this piece of memorable music, I scrolled down to read the comments. So many real and moving postings. I forgot all about the contentious presidential elections, the lockdown and covid19. Fragile humanity with a shared appreciation for great music, that binds us together; whether black or white, Democrat or Republican. That's left at the door when our hearts and spirits unite. Peace everyone. ❤
Right on Kathy! Peace to you and yours.
Im with u Girl from Lubbock Texas😎
Well said...
😆 contentious elections 😆
Yes 👍 thanks.
Anyone here from Louisville? This was the song WHAS played under the long, long, long list of school closings during the blizzard of '78. Everyone tuned in every night for like 3 weeks to see if we were still out. Good times. ❤
Blizzard of 78. Boston Mass. 3 weeks, no school.
This song used to be played on an all black radio station called WDAO Dayton in the promo as bumper music as a kid and stayed in rotation. I instantly fell in love with it and to my surprise in my early twenties was when I first found out who made it and he wasn't black. He's a great artist no matter what color he is and I'll always love this song.
Yes! It's 2021. This man is such an outstanding talent. Notorious B.I.G sampled Mr. Alperts music from "RISE" and created one of his biggest hits in the rap genre.
Also heard it in one if the "Blue" songs
Yes he did. And kinda brought it back to life. At least it did for me.
Herb's nephew composed that song, and was responsible for shaping the sampled guitar chord.
@@nathanwatson1915 Really?? Wow, l never knew that, Thank you Sir!! I love,, love,, love,, learning new or little known facts about artists and the story behind their 🎵. l am a wanna be music trivia Queen, Rise is a modern day masterpiece.🎺
You must be talking of hypnotize.
I have a tradition of playing this song whenever i deplane and walk to baggage claim....always a great start to any trip
That’s ace dude, keep it goin’...

Great idea!

Song from a time when my parents were in their 40s and happier times in our home; Dad had Hi-Fi Speakers in his room and I could hear the song on the hallways.. I was in Elementary and my bike, Starwars set and my siblings we all shared..we where happy…😊
Good times !
I first heard this song when I was a young teenager and am now 67 and love it as much now as I did when I first heard it. A timeless piece, that knows no borders, still groovin' to the music here in Canada 🇨🇦!

Listening to on Jan 5, 2020. You see...There are those of us that will never loose class!

Leonardo my dear.... how is it possible to lose class or fabulous taste in music ?..... Not gonna happen.
By the way.... you were listening to this golden nugget on my sons birthday...so Double whammy. :)
lose
Leonardo Iglesias so true , class stays forever
Woulda been classy to spell ‘lose’ correctly. Just screwing with ya.
It is simply amazing on how a song that produced over 40 years ago can sound fresh and uplifting in these dark days we're all experiencing.Still love this song since it came out!!
You are so right Ken! True talent never gets old !!
I’m with ya brother!
They're not dark days for me everything's fine I'm retired and don't have to put up with everyone anymore on the job
amen Ken I cant get enough of it im 73
Yes Ken, quite true. It has that 80s beat, very progressive at the time but with the horn. With that element, it then appealed to such a wide variety of people from different generations I think.
Musician, composer, arranger, sound engineer, singer, actor....and all at a level few can match. This is his masterpiece.
And also music producer, businessman, accomplished artist, philanthropist and so on. Herb Alpert continues to make music, and has done so for nearly seven decades.

I was ten… running through the south Bronx and hearing this blasting from everyone’s windows… Classic
My father is dying of stage 4 lung cancer. Since I was a child he and my mother loved this song! Now I'm 48 and we still just yesterday got an opportunity to kick back and listen to our song!!! 💕💕💕

Years ago, I met an electrician who had done work for Herb at his home in Los Angeles. He said that you'd never meet a nicer guy in the world: just a humble, regular guy who treated everyone the same. Without knowing Herb, I'm just not surprised.
Timeless classic, bring back great childhood memories of 1979
My dad danced on this on my 6th birthday so happily that I still can see him being 37
Herb is the only artist in the rock era who managed to reach # 1 with both a vocal & an instrumental-Quite an accomplishment!
Herb Alpert’s Rise and Chuck Mangione’s Feel So Good. Excellent!!
Two excellent choices. I would offer Mangione's Bellavia for consideration in your short list.

Wowwww!!!
I thought I was the best around,but Ron Ron, in my old audio cassette side A I have Chuck Mangione's Feel so Good followed by Herb Alpert's rise and You, Mike Patrick Side B I also have George Benson's Breezin and Barry White's (Love unlimited orchestra ~Love's Theme) ect.
Great memory from my father!
Song takes me back to car rides over the 59th st bridge nyc at sunset with my mother as a girl. Queens to Manhattan then back -- priceless!
I knew a guy who worked at an AM radio station, WLKK AM 1400, here in Erie, Pennsylvania. I worked as a producer during the same time as a weekend producer. This wonderful tune was selected to be his intro music when he came on the air at 6 am every morning. At 6 bells, I would hear NBC chimes, NBC radio news, then the air would be filled with this song and it was epic. It left a lasting memory from a time when I was involved with a great radio station and the people who worked within it.
My Mom use to drive this blue Chevy Impala and this song played quite often back then on the radio...Her laugh!I love you and I miss you Mama❤ Rest in Heaven Dec 21,1955-Nov 2002
My third wife Kathy Ann used to dance to this privately and publicly in nightclubs . God bless her. We were married from 1981 until 2008. She divorced me, but I still love her!!! I heard a rumor that she has passed away. Only Jesus can ever reunite us and our two kids and grand kids. Divorce SUCKS. Hang on to true love when God lets you find it!!!

We used to be a real country. With real musicians like Herb Alpert.
I remember being 9 years old when this came out. My whole family thought I was strange for listening to jazz. Thankfully everyone just let me be me. 43 years later I still love jazz and especially this song. Classics will always stand the test of time.
Absolutely
I was 10. It changed my life
Helped me get through every morning for eight months in the VA Hospital in Seattle. Thank you Herb...and Randy. You bring life to my dying body.

Saved my baby-sitting money for weeks to buy this on vinyl. Walked to the record store and went right home to play it on my turn table! Those were the days!
I can remember cruising through Harlem with my dad in his monte Carlo listening to this, he passed on 2 years ago, r.i.p. dad, thanks so much for the memories.
What a great memory that have !!
The irony. A few years ago Herb Albert read that they had closed down a school of music in Harlem due to financial problems. Herb Albert donated 500k to the school. And they were able to reopen!
He's in a better place. Plz keep your heads up and stay safe. 🙏 God bless you and your family 👪 🙏 ❤️ ♥️ 💕 💙 👪 🙏

Perfection. And scientifically proven to make you 8% cooler just by listening to it.
And i am!
I was in the 8th grade in 1979. I miss that time, and this song helps me remember.
We used to have a couple of parrots, they loved this song. The would get all happy and start strutting around like they owned the place.
Maybe with the world health problems, we should all lock ourselves away and just enjoy music for what it is... the meaning of life.

That is what I do.......music is what keeps me sane and smiling right now and everyday for that matter. Like that Billy Ekstein song says...."Without a song".
Karen Long Psssst...Welcome! Been doing just that for 5 years in August! Peace!
I dialed up Miles Davis kinda blue the other day. Listened to the whole thing. Like taking an anti anxiety pill. Felt totally chilled
Because of the quarentine I've rediscovered Herb! Can't get enough! My late father loved him! Now I do to! He's also aged very well!
I was 16 when this song came out. I still get the same exotic sensual undertones who the instruments playing. A natural high without the drugs. Salute, Herb Alpert
I was 7 yrs old. Timeless from whenever discovered
I was 5 and I still remember how cool this groove was, and is.
@Herb Alpert
My birthday was in June. I played this song twice. Yes. *RISE* is the ish. Again, I say SALUTE.
It's an honor
Very true, gets you right of depressed mode
I first heard this on a jazz station in the early 2000s. Didn't realize this created in the late 70s. One of my personal favorites. I listen to this everyday.
Herb had not recorded much . This single shot him beyond his imagination.
The trumpet... the bass line.... wow!!!
If anybody use to watch General Hospital back in the day then you definitely know what went down when they played this.
Luke and Laura!
All My Children too.

I think it was a scene where Erica was dancing 💃 at a disco. I did not follow the soap. I just stopped to look because the music is awesome.
@@lidiabadillo8619 Oh ok. I think that might have been before I started watching AMC. I'll have to search and see if I can find that scene. Thanks!
This song is a part of what also makes classic Hip-Hop music so great. Had it not been for Hypnotize by the Notorious BIG containing a sample of this song I probably never would've found this amazing piece of work.
My dad, Anthony Aragon loved this song when he was alive. I'd hear this in the late 70s and 80s on the radio. I miss you dadin heaven 😭🙏❤️💯
Still an entire vibe! My Nana loved this record
Used to hear this at the supermarket as a kid in the early 80's, back when supermarkets played bad ass shopping music.
I heard this song in a Lowe's on a Sunday morning a few years ago. So smooth, funky, perfect mood setter.
Thankfully my supermarket still does.
Canadian tire plays this almost every week along with other classics still!!
Sh** go to the shoprite in Mount Laurel NJ they play this stuff a lott !😊
That's funny and "that's right!"
I remember being in the car with my parents listening to this - a Buick Skylark 1979. I caught the end of the disco era.
Lucy you!
Amen bruthA I wish we cld those days bk
LETS BRING IT BACK AMEN
Me too, but it was a chevy impala.
We had a blue Buick Skylark also, loved that car ... it was blue and we called her Buela - such great memories, the 70's were happy days for us ... :)
My dad owned a restaurant in Tulsa Oklahoma in the sixties and seventies and had this on his jukebox. This song has been in my head ever since. Love it!
What’s the restaurant? I might know it...
This song has been living in my head rent free for over a week now. It allows me to reflect on the past and be hopeful for the future...
Sri Lankan here. Grew up listening to this stuff in the 1970's. Good to hear it again.
He was handsome! And I just love this type of music so relaxing
Impressive
+Jessica Rogers Hi

I like his music..but this one speaks to me about sadness and loss. I remember it from the original and when it was played in the bull ring in Spain.

One of my dads favourites along with George Harrisons my sweet lord. God he had good taste in music. Miss you dad 🥺 xx
Bless you Kate
This comment literally made me cry 😥
That was my favourite song ever. I'm 62
Kate Boyle My Dad played this song probably a few hundred times in his car over the years with me riding shotgun. Now he is gone and this song makes me think of him as much as any song ever. I’m glad to know someone else out there feels what I do. This song also made an appearance on one of my favorite shows....Mindhunter season 1.
My mom LOVES this song! I'm still lucky to have her at 81 y/o.
Heard this for the first time the summer just before my parents got divorced, I remember this song making me happy, walkmans had just come out, since things were never the same after that summer I remember the song very fondly, hard to explain. Good times before all went to shit
First heard this when I was 7 on the radio in our house, I was playing with my star wars figures at the time, I'm 48 now this tune brings back all those wonderful childhood memories.
That's it, I'm going to put on my Roller Skates, my earphones and roll with this music⛸️

My mother used to dance to this song in the living room as I watched how it always brought her to life all while watching General Hospital! Lol, if some you all remember the theme to Luke and Laura. Great times..
OMG I love that they played this song on General Hospital with Luke and Laura. But it breaks my heart that it’s in a context of controversy because but before they became such a smoldering couple in love, he forced himself on her when this song played 😢
I remember, Oscar, I remember very well, and are near weeping sometimes.
Luke raped Laura when this song was playing
I'm surprised I had to scroll this far to find it! yes, GH.
YES!!!
I'm Anthony from Chicago. It's October 29, 2023 and I'm listening to this tune. 🎊
Same. Mary in Chitown 13 Nov '23. Just missed ya by 2 weeks.
It's alright Mary lol I was listening to Tijuana brass and Tequila a couple days ago.
Still rocking 2023
Chuck Mangione's Feels So Good and Herb's Rise. Pure masters at work.
And Angela..Bob James...my 3 favorite instrumentals
2sides of the same coin.
I completely agree…I ♥️♥️♥️ both those songs. Brings back such good memories of my childhood.
