"Twenty years have passed since I saw my first bullfight, the memories of that magical afternoon in Tijuana, Mexico, left me with an everlasting need to say thank you to the late, great matador (Rejoneador) Carlos Arruza and all my latin friends, who in one way or another, have influenced my music. This album is for you." Herb Alpert

Thanks to Abraham Laboriel for introducing me to a wonderful new friend and fabulous producer, José Quintana.
