Very Creative adverts and as one of them put it "A Very Good Show Indeed"!

I love these too, but right now it's time to play that fun game, "NITPICKY TIME"!
This ad features a list of A&M artists on the bottom. It's probably those on the then-current roster, those that hadn't faded away like the George McCurns and the Lucille Starrs, and certainly not the one-off singles artists like the Ken-jo-lairs or Larry Marks.
OK, so they appear to be listed in alphabetical order, and I can accept Herb at the start of the list. So why does "Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66" get placed with the "M's" and "Julius Wechter & The Baja Marimba Band" get placed with the "B's"? (I actually understand why - it's because the Bajas got started as just the Baja Marimba Band and later morphed to include the leader's name. And it's why they are that way in my collection.)
Oh yeah - Tamba 6?
