"The Music from Peter Gunn"

The music in this album offers an exellent sampling of the sounds you're likely 
to hear any Monday eve when Peter Gunn swings into action onNbc Tv. 
To give us this musical background we needed a composer with roots in the jazz 
idiom, one who could interpret dramatic action in the language of modern jazz. 
Henri Mancini is that composer.
The musicians are the same jazzmen who are heard to outstanding advantage
 in all the programs. This music is Peter Gunn's kind of jazz. 
I think you'll find that it's your kind too.

"Lucky" is a true cosmopolite. 
He's been everywhere, seen and done just about everything
  and he knows everybody. He as a Suave, Sophisticated,
 Polished demeanor. Mancini's ambitious assignment
 was to project, musically, Lucky's involved personality.
 Because of the wide scope of the characterizations, 
Mancini uses a wide variety of instruments and ideas. 
When strings are called for, you hear them. 
If the mood or character demands a jazz inflection, there it is. 
Whether the situation is romantic, humorous, tragic, ironic or
  full of action,Mancini creates exactly the right musical mood. 
So this album is "Mr. Lucky" and it is good music.
In addition, it is Henry Mancini. 
That, in itself, is sufficient recommendation for me.
