    Julius Wechter - Movie Star??

    I was checking out the Herb Alpert videos on AMG and did a little touring. The Julius Wechter page said that he had appeared in some films, but it only lists "Young Man With a Horn." Does anyone know anything about his "movie career?" Phil

    Baja Marimba Band in 1969 radio commercial?

    In the summer of 1969, in Bradford, PA., I heard a commercial on the radio with music that sounded unmistakably like Baja Marimba Band. The melody resembled Dave Clark Five's "Because" but the tempo and style matched the trombone opening to BMB's "Yes Sir, That's My Baby." No marimbas, but the...

    Julius Wechter & The Baja Marimba Band

    Anyone a fan of these crazy guys? I've been slowly finding their LPs and I'm a little upset to realize that their appearance on CD is virtually non-existent. Does anyone know if Shout Factory will pick them up next? I hope so!

    Tijuana Brass vs. Baja Marimba Band(poll)

    Since I'm putting this under the Tijuana Brass thread, the results may be skewed. I'm curious as to who else has an appreciation for the Baja Marimba crew. I was introduced to the Brass many years ago, and have always been a fan. I was only introduced to the BMB 3 or 4 years ago. After...

    JULIUS WECHTER

    It doesn't seem possible that 6 years have gone by since Julius' passing. He was our friend in that he was regularly in our homes. What great pleasure he gave all who listened to his music. Who could not listen without a large grin? For those who had the opportunity to see a concert or TV...

    Herman Alpert, Julius Wechter, and Doris Day

    Just got a two disk set of Doris Day favorites called Golden Girl. It has a very detailed list of the studio musicians who played on the recording. Several of them had TJB connections. I noticed Tommy Tedesco on one cut. The best surprise was Julius Wechter playing percussion on "Let...

    Julius Wechter & Tourette's Syndrome

    The late Julius Wetcher was devoted to The Tourette's Syndrome Association. My daughter was recently diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome and my question is : What made Julius get so deeply involved? Did he have Tourette's? Or was it maybe a family member of his?

    Baja Marimba Band, best of CD vs LP

    I purchased the Best of the BMB CD (A&M POCM-1575 [Japan] 1998) a couple years ago and was completely under-whelmed. It was good music, but it didn’t reach out to me and say, “Hey, listen!”. Well, during the course of procuring all Herb Alpert’s stuff on vinyl to transfer to CD, I picked-up a...

    THE TIJUANA BRASS featuring JULIUS WECHTER

    Okay fellow Cornerites, especially those of you with ears keen enough to notice dropouts on "Monday, Monday", I hereby make this declaration. The first 4 Baja albums were essentially the TJB featuring Julius Wechter. I say the only difference between the early BMB and TJB was who was at the...
