Kudos to Herb for being gracious to her, but there should still be an asterisk involved though....one of her top five albums is a remake of a previous well-known album.

Taylor Swift has 3 more albums to redo, "self-titled" (2006), "1989" (2014) & "Reputation" (2017) & maybe an update on her 6 song EP "Christmas" 2007 CD with bonus tracks (which was a Target store exclusive).

10 Things to Know About Herb Alpert, Whose 1966 Chart Record Was Just Tied by Taylor Swift

I'm pretty sure another instrumentalist will never match it.

 

[Steven J. Gross]

I'd be surprised if she even knew who Herb is. I've seen no comment by her but Herb said "gracious" so I assume there was contact..

 

[Michael Hagerty]

I'd be surprised if she even knew who Herb is.

33 years old, releasing her own music on her own terms. Savvy businesswoman. You really think by this stage she doesn't know who Herb is and how he co-founded the most successful independent record label of the 20th century?

She grew up in the Reading/Allentown corridor of Pennsylvania. Heck her parents might even have attended this concert:
