Initially formed by producer Herb Alpert to cash in on the "south of the border" craze started by his own Tijuana Brass, the Baja Marimba Band outlasted the Tijuana Brass by several years thanks largely in part to TV producer, Chuck Barris, who featured the group's music on his game shows through the mid-1970s.
He began his long and successful association with Herb Alpert and his Tijuana Brass when he played percussion on the Tijuana Brass's first hit, "The Lonely Bull", in 1962.
Its theme song was a slightly-modified version of Brasilia, performed by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass.
