One of my favorite bands. Rock and Roll goes through good times, then bad. When Nirvana hit, good times were back. This is a cover of a Lead Belly song

Tijuana Brass had immense popularity. They sold about as many records as the Beatles -- maybe more.It is amazing that the little things seem to stick with you forever. When I was young, my dad used to play this record often. I can still hear that brass as if it was yesterday. Of course, my memory is also helped by that album cover. What boy wouldn’t like to see a pretty girl covered in only whipped cream?

When I looked I was surprise that Tijuana Brass sold so many records worldwide, 72 million. But you way off comparing to the Beatles. The Beatles have sold 183 million records worldwide. In 1966 the Tijuana Brass sold about the same as the Beatles, 66 million. But that means they have sold 7 million since. The Beatles 117 million since.Tijuana Brass had immense popularity.
