That guitar player looks exactly like a young Tommy Tedesco. Imagine that - a real guitarist playing a guitarist on TV.
And that smoke-filled club is authentic. Sometimes I wonder how any musician who played for a living in the 50's and 60's DIDN'T come down with tuberculosis, whether they smoked or not.
@fosbury68 The first cop to shoot looks like charles maxwell it looks like tommy tedesco they used jazz musicians in tv shows and movies johnny staccato and a man called adam
Peter Gunn was the coolest private eye, thanks in part to Henry Mancini's jazzy score. Craig Stevens and the beautiful Lola Albright made the perfect tv couple.
BTW, I was watching the original episodes at The Museum of Television & Radio (NYC) and I noticed that the original network episodes had an animated pattern that led to the week's sponsor. For example: (a bouncing octagon; bongoes play) 'Peter Gunn...brought to you by...Bristol Myers...makers of Ipana Toothpaste.' - and the octagon would transform into the sponsor's product. That was awesome for the late '50s and early '60s, B&W especially considering.
The hippest of them all. The Peter Gunn series and all its stars. Craig, Lola, Herschel, and all the talented co-stars. The music...the best of the best with Mancini, and all the great Los Angeles musicians. An era, long gone, but hopefully will return. We need this kind of talent in Hollywood, again.
I found the cd soundtrack in the local library. It's awesome.

At the start when those cops blow the guys in the car away, it's like the start of Magnum Force but 15 years earlier :)

The "cops" just let the horn keep blowing? Yeah, Ok. That`s realistic. Lets draw attention after a triple homocide.

Gunn was smooth, well heeled, well dressed, loved jazz and the club scene. Peter Gunn was what Miami Vice would be a quarter century later.
