jdw, the Sant' Agata grappa I linked to is distilled from the leftovers after they make their wine, from a wonderful, aromatic red grape called Ruché, unique to the area.
Wiki says, accurately, that Ruché di Castagnole Monferrato is a very distinctive, medium bodied wine with clear notes of pepper and wild berries. The wine is quite floral on the nose. Its body is characterized by a pleasant acidity and soft tannins.
They don't mention the grappa. It's definitely strong, and it definitely burns, but that goes hand in glove with bright, brilliant fruit.

SCHWARZENEGGER: I always start with the positive. I was very happy that Congress and that the President signed into law [an improvement for] fuel efficiency of the vehicles by the year 2020. That is the first time in a long time, which, of course doesn't say much for the United States.... But it's good news. So that's number one. It's one of those things that you get that news in the morning and then a few hours later, then you get the real bad news. Which is that they don't believe that we should be controlling our own destiny and cleaning up the air and controlling the tailpipe emissions and all those kinds of things.
I just think that they've been dragging their feet. As I said to [EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson], I obviously respect their opinion and I understand where he's coming from, he can only go so far because he is part of the Administration, but the bottom line is, it's very, very disappointing. I think, again, this is news that will go all over the world that they are not serious.

This is probably unAmerican to admit, but Bing Crosby is probably my least favorite Xmas singer. I find him boring to the point of being mildly annoying.
I do like his duet with David Bowie on Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth. But that's because I'm a sucker for Xmas songs with hamronies, and that also push the idea of peace.

Against its sister’s unripe breast;

And flails with lies and mockery;
A troll that in all seasons wears
The dust of cheetos in its beard;
Upon whose belly crumbs have lain;
Who thinks that cleanliness is pain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
‘Tis but Dog knows why trolls be.

OMG! I was getting ready to log off, but I read the end of the thread.
I listened to that album a ton. My sister lives in Rochester, and a few years ago, she and her husbansd sawhim in concert. She got him to autograph two old albums because she knew I liked him. Sweet of her, but, um...
Anyway, I've been waiting for a CD. But a DVD?
And he's 67? Wow.
Who the fuck are you kidding?
Herb Alpert could be bested by a fucking junior high kid as a trumpet player.
And the New York Times is in the business of writing fiction again. Listen to this bit, "What is needed is a bold strategy to rebuild a functioning safety net, deploying some of the vast wealth this nation has gained through globalization to assist those hurt by the forces of economic change. This will allow Americans to embrace globalization, rather than fear it.
The planks of this strategy include health care reform, to ensure that workers who lose their jobs do not also lose access to affordable health insurance, and a form of extended unemployment insurance for all displaced workers, not just those hurt by trade. More progressive taxation — using tools like the earned income tax credit — should be used to address the stagnation of incomes. And more should be spent on the continuous training and education of workers throughout their lives."
And this is going to happen in America, right?
What a fucking pathetic joke that newspaper has become.
Happy Holidays to one and all.
You, too!
Happy Days off, Monica A!
That's my new greeting. I figure people celebrate different religious holidays, nor none at all, but everyone enjoys an excuse for days off.

Well, in all fairness, Alpert was a pretty good trumpet player, a much better producer, and an excellent judge of American taste in music (for better or worse). He also had a second trupeter on the band that may have helped a little, and the rest of the group was the cream of California studio virtuousi. He was also responsible for the spin-off Baja Marimba Band, which didn't catch on like TB did, but which was very funny to watch. Tijuana Brass music is still very popular today in the right setting, and almost every trumpeter I know of the boomer age was inspired to take up the horn by Herb (later inspired by herb).
A&M surely wasn't founded on his skill or expertise as a trumpet player.

Self-contradictory idiocy.

I didn't say shitty trumpet player, I said mediocre. Can't you fucking read?
Alpert's trumpet virtuosity, or lack thereof, had nothing to do with his popularity or his subsequent success. He was more than adequate to the modest demands of his music... the TJB was a great gimmick (I loved 'em when I was a pre-teen... saw 'em live, even). His solo career wasn't much, though.
Compared to his singing ability, Alpert the trumpeter was fuckin' Hakan Hardenberger.

I am interested in why you think Alpert was a bad trumpeter, angryspittle. I think he made it look easy, which might lead one to believe he wasn't good. I do know that when i call TB tunes on corporate gigs, some of the best hornplayers around will have some trouble with some passages, so it can't be all that easy.
The groove from Alpert's song 'Rise' served Notorious B.I.G. quite well.
School marching bands are part of that exotic Americana. Like homecoming queens and the idea that you would pick a college based on its football team.
Now that's real exotica for me.

Today's adventure in motoring. Boogeying up 205 when a landscaper's pickup about 50 yards ahead of me has a tarp blow out of the bed. Change lanes to avoid and the billowing sheet changes lanes with me. Fortunately, it lies down enough that I run over it, rather than having it cover the windshield. I look behind me to see how the rest of traffic will fare and the tarp is nowhere in sight, so I start to head for the shoulder. I look ahead, and damned if the PU driver isn't concious enough and consceincentious to be pulling over, too. We stop, and I get out to find where the trap is hung up on the car, as the guy comes up all apologetic to hell. I find it sticking out from the left rear wheelwell and left bumper. Turns out it's not wrapped around stuff and isn't snagged hard at all when I pull on it. So I give him back the tarp, and wait while he repacks the bed. Then we drive off, happy campers.

You're a cruel man, ronjazz.
I was a trumpet player about the time when Herb Alpert was popular. He had a distinctive style. That is not a bad thing. Al Hirt was popular then as well. He was much more of a virtuoso on the instrument. Raphael (Damn! I knew it when I started to write this note!) was considered to be the best in the world at the time. But Herb Alpert had a style and that was enough to distinguish him from others. Sometimes that is enough. His music was catchy and made you smile when you heard it. Isn't that enough? (Yes, I bought two or three of his albums myself. The one with the girl covered in whipped cream was . . . .)

WRT Herb Alpert, remember that the "M" of A&M records was Henry Mancini. I don't recall his being chopped liver in the musicianship department.
Alpert coexisted with Dizzy, Miles, Maynard and Doc, as well as Raphael whats-his-name (great classical player), and managed to outsell all of them, so I would have to say the ability to make you feel good was a major component of his appeal. Probably much the same reason Brubeck needed Desmond, not that there's any musical comparison.

Later.
Political activist Russell Means, a founder of the American Indian Movement, says he and other members of Lakota tribes have renounced treaties and are withdrawing from the United States.1221 04
“We are now a free country and independent of the United States of America,” Means said in a telephone interview. “This is all completely legal.”
Means said a Lakota delegation on Monday delivered a statement of “unilateral withdrawal” from the United States to the U.S. State Department in Washington.
The State Department did not respond. “That’ll take some time,” Means said.
Meanwhile, the delegation has delivered copies of the letter to the embassies of Bolivia, Venezuela, Chile and South Africa. “We’re asking for recognition,” Means said, adding that Ireland and East Timor are “very interested” in the declaration.
Other countries will get copies of the same declaration, which Means said also would be delivered to the United Nations and to state and county governments covered by treaties, including treaties signed in 1851 and 1868. “We’re willing to negotiate with any American political entity,” Means said.
The United States could face international pressure if it doesn’t agree to negotiate, Means said. “The United State of America is an outlaw nation, we now know. We’ve understood that as a people for 155 years.”
Means also said his group would file liens on property in parts of South Dakota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Montana and Wyoming that were illegally homesteaded. . .Means said anyone could live in the Lakota Nation, tax free, as long as they renounced their U.S. citizenship. The nation would issue drivers licenses and passports, but each community would be independent. “It will be the epitome of individual liberty, with community control,” Means said. "

G-D of All, Bless the Lakotas and Russell Means.
In June of 2003 my son and I took a 2 month car/camping tour of the Northern plains states as a coolege graduation celebration. The best parts we visited were South Dakota around the grasslands National Park (near the Badlands and the region where Means and his tribe operated). THe most thriilling area I saw was in North west Montana on the late afternoon when we entered the Blackfoot Nation. The sun was shining below dark clouds as a wicked storm was approaching and I saw the massive statues of the two Blackfoot braves on horseback just as we entered their territory. As an Easterner, it was spine-tingling.
As June 2003 was still "Shock And Awe" in full swing we roamed around Browning, MT we looked at all the posters of the young Blackfoot men and women from the Nation who were deployed to Iraq. I don't know if it was some sort of warrior mentality, patriotism, or lack of alternative opportunities, but it had a big influence on my son. It's a strange place to be a pro-military hard core anarchist, but because of the class dependancy on the military, that's were my Brown edumacated son ended up.
