This is one of my fav albums of the 1960,s.Great music & not a bad album cover as well.The lp cover was unheard of in 1965 & it did cause a bit of a controversy.http://www.amazon.com/Whipped-Cream-...pd_sim_m_1_img

I remember my dad has this in his stash of records, and for dad ("Wouldn't be prudent") that was something else!!!!

My best friend's mom had this album. The cover was pretty risque for the time. Of course, this particular mom also had some great books - The Happy Hooker - Everthing You Always Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid to Ask - Our Bodies, Ourselves - lots of others. All the avant garde publications of the late 1960's and early 1970's. We'd spend hours reading them while she was at work.

My parents had that album! I remember seeing it all the time when I was a kid. They never mentioned the cover, but they sure liked the music

Ah, thanks for the memories. I remember all of those.
My next door neighbors had that album, and I stared at it in fascination, thinking about the logistics (no Photoshop back then!) and I did enjoy the music, too.
Remember

The Lonely Bull? (1962.)

I bought that album a few months after it came out. My mom on occasion would ask me what lp's I would buy, I would show it to her, and she, uh, didn't comment.

I loved that stuff then, and still do. Talk about a prolific career! He done very well for himself in short order because the A in A&M Records stands for Herb Alpert, who helped start that label.
