Stumbled on this yesterday and @ 9:45 thought "how did Herb manage to write a tune and call it Flamingo w out copyright infringement" Hadn't heard it since I was a kid and didn't know what it was then.
Now I can see that's its the original Flamingo, I think first recorded by Al Hibbler w Duke but Albertized here.
I should've known it was too hip for Herb to write
ps, yes that's guitarist John Pisano counting his money as he's playing, cha-ching....

ps I like how he's "directing" the band on the opening number 'the lonely bull'
The TJB wasn't a jazz band obviously but has anyone ever heard him play jazz?

Still love that music from my youth... weird, but great. That is the original track, BTW, so they were lip-syncing (what's the instrumental equivalent? would be what they did with American Bandstand, as well. Must be a phrase for that.)

And his success as cohead at A&M Records, for 20 years, had some very big names on that label. I had no idea he also did art. Everything he touched turned to gold!
