Greatest Hits (Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass album)

Greatest Hits is a 1970 album by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass. This was the group's first compilation album, with all selections coming from its first five albums. The album, released a few months after Alpert had disbanded the group, was eventually certified gold in the spring of 1971.[1] When Greatest Hits was released, Alpert was in the midst of a four-year sabbatical from performing, instead concentrating on producing records for other artists signed to his A&M label.
