Moss and Herb Alpert were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 as nonperformers. Jerry Moss and his wife, Ann, are also longtime horse breeders and owners who received the largest ever first-place purse from the Kentucky Derby in 2005 after the victory of the first horse he had ever entered in that race, Giacomo.
