Thanks for the info Harry I was not Aware of any Video version of this Album ever being made until now. I do remember reading somewhere that polygram discarded a lot of stuff when they took over A&M and some of the TJB Videos were possibly among those lost ( I HOPE THAT ISN'T THE CASE.) But i too would love to have this on either VHS Or DVD ( At least compatible with my equipment) Let's Hope For A Reissue of this Rarity.I believe @pufnstuf1969 was referring to the video program that was part of the same series as your CD, @Bobberman .
PolyGram Video released a video title called THE VERY BEST OF HERB ALPERT on VHS tape in the UK and on LaserDisc in Japan. I've done my own conversion from the LaserDisc to a DVD-R and made the following artwork for a CD-sized jewel-case:
This special video used TV clips from the TjB TV specials and combined it with latter-day solo videos. The whole thing was "Produced and Edited by Lani Hall Alpert". Finding this video in the US is problematic as the VHS tape from the UK won't play in US players and has to go through a conversion process by someone with the capability of doing so. The conversion leaves the video looking a little jerky.
The LaserDisc is very rare, but converts very easily. It's only problem is the occasional burned-in Japanese subtitles.
The CD from Canada and the UK had a different track listing, though it used similar artwork.

This VHS was also released in Australia
Yeah, it's difficult to know for sure just exactly where every release was worldwide. I don't even recall now, were Aussie VHS tapes compatible with any other country worldwide? Were they the same as the UK?
It is a true rarity in every sense of the word.I buyed that VHS VIDEO on ebay couple of years ago for about 25 dollars i think,and it was in a great condition and it still is but i havent seen it more on ebay or other sites,its very difficult to find it
