The Lonely Bull, released in 1962, is the debut album from Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass, and was also the first album ever released by A&M Records. The album was originally issued in both mono and stereo versions, though the stereo version essentially had the mono version come out of one speaker with a separate solo trumpet track coming through the other. Because of this, critics have noted that when listened to on headphones, the stereo album sounds excessively "heavy" on one side. This led many later fans to prefer the mono version.

The original stereo version of the album has since been reissued on the Shout! Factory music label.

A more balanced stereo remix of the title track, "The Lonely Bull (El Solo Toro)", can be found on the Herb Alpert compilation Definitive Hits.
