  • "Rise" is a song written by Andy Armer and Randy Badazz Alpert, and first recorded by trumpeter Herb Alpert. The instrumental track was included on Alpert's solo album Rise and released as a single in 1979. It reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in October of that year and remained in the top position for two weeks. Herb Alpert thus became the first (and only) artist to reach the top of the Hot 100 with a vocal performance ("This Guy's in Love with You", 1968) as well as an instrumental performance. "Rise" also spent one week atop the adult contemporary chart. "Rise" was successful on the other charts: It peaked at number four on the soul chart, and number seventeen on the disco chart.The recording also received a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance.

    The most favorite memory of my mother was when my mother, my sisters, and myself were dancing to this song back in the summer of 79. For the first five years of my life my mother was a drug addict, and she had a bad overdose that year. The county almost took us away from her, and the only way she could get us back was if she got clean. She came home, and we turned on the radio...She heard this song, grabbed us, and started dancing. That was the happiest I ever saw her, and there were few times she was happy, but she was so glad to be with us. My mother stayed clean for us, and she never used again. But this song will always be special

    Back in 1980 I put on this song for my 85-year old grandmother, who was raised on a farm in Czechoslovakia. Didn't speak much English, and never listened to music. When the intro started, she perked up and proclaimed, "It makes me want to dance." So, we did!
    Thanks, Mr. Alpert.

By the grace of god she survived for another 33 yrs. Paralyzed and limited communication. I sure do miss her she would dance and was out familia's best cook!

    I knew a guy who worked at an AM radio station, WLKK AM 1400, here in Erie, Pennsylvania. I worked as a producer during the same time as a weekend producer. This wonderful tune was selected to be his intro music when he came on the air at 6 am every morning. At 6 bells, I would hear NBC chimes, NBC radio news, then the air would be filled with this song and it was epic. It left a lasting memory from a time when I was involved with a great radio station and the people who worked within it.

    This song is a part of what also makes classic Hip-Hop music so great. Had it not been for Hypnotize by the Notorious BIG containing a sample of this song I probably never would've found this amazing piece of work.

      I can kind of relate. My late mother loved this song. I cry every single time I hear it no matter where I am.

      Amigo... La Música cuando se escucha con el Corazon y el Alma..., es como un portal por donde entramos a cargarnos de energía, "no importa" edad, enfermedad, pobreza o riqueza..., solo interesa esa Musica..., Melodias que quedan hiladas a nuestro espíritu... Colócalo a tu Padre "Rise" si a sido de sus favoritas, lo harás volar hasta lo supernatural de la imaginación, esto es la Verdadera Medicina de la esencia humana... Las bibraciones Musicales...! Dios siempre ilumine los caminos...! 🕴🕴🕴🕴🎼🎼✨✨💞💞✨✨🎼🎼🕴🕴🕴🕴

    A very beautiful song. When I listen this song I close my eyes and I feel that I am flying.

    Wonderful piece; great musicians and a perfect sound mix make "Rise" one of the best cultural nuggets of the 1970's.
