Music for today: Herb Albert, this Guy's in Love

I've loved this song ever since I was a little boy. Of course the words are great, all about this guy who is hopelessly and helplessly in love, hands shakin, the whole bit. And the music? Oh my. The crescendo and decrescedo back down to almost nothing, the beautifully understated horn blowing those stylistic little toots, toot toot, toot toot, toot toot toot toot toot toot .... I need your love...
What a great song. Anybody know if this predates Phil Spector's "wall of sound" technique? I t sure sounds similar to me.
