This is a good story

Herb Alpert donates over 10 million to give scholarships to music majors in Los Angelos Community College.

Hmm... I was copying the link and assumed they would know? Just fixed the title.

Before A&M Records, one of the producers I work with (Jerry Marcellino) played sax in Mr Alpert's band, the Tijiuana Brass (did I spell that right, teacher?)

I've heard lots of stories about what a good "boss" he was, but never met him.
