We actually discussed that before - it's not an actual Herb Alpert record, but a knock-off designed to sound like the kind of music that was popular back then.

The composer for the music in that episode was Richard Markowicz. It's likely that Mr. Markowitz composed the song and included it within the episode as "source music." This was - and is - done so as not to have to pay clearance rights for popular songs. In other words, it's likely only ever been heard on the soundtrack of that episode and not included on any albums.

Richard is best known for having written the fantastic theme to Wild, Wild West. He's also the father of Sergio vocalist Kate.
