Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass march to the heartbeat of America on a musical journey through the length and breadth of the country
A programme recorded in America
First shown on BBC-1

Tonight's programme, filmed on location, aims at providing a musical parallel with the diverse yet unique images of America. So the Tijuana Brass play 'Cabaret' as the camera roams along some of the most famous pleasure streets-New York's Broadway, Chicago's State Street, and Fremont Street in Las Vegas.
In New Orleans 'Wall Street Rag' is heard against a background of the famous old-time jazz musicians. And ' California Girls' is played while 200 drummajorettes twirl their batons.
The musical safari also takes in a trip on the aerial tramway near Palm Springs and a visit to the Los Angeles Zoo.
Herb Alpert makes one of his rare appearances as a singer when wandering along the coastline near Malibu he serenades his wife with 'This guy's in love with you.'
