Whipped Cream and Other Delights
Coming some 52 years after the Percy Wenrich rag composition of the same name, this breakout Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass album of 1965 with the controversial cover is similarly provocative in its mix of sex and dairy products as the original Starmer concept of 1912. And what of those delights, as suggested by by the picture? In truth, this memorable photograph of model Dolores Erickson, who was three months pregnant at the time, was accomplished with a whole bunch of shaving cream, which doesn't melt so readily under the lights. Not to say that the male population who purchased the album didn't melt so quickly!
