Henry Mancini's and His Orchestra perform the theme from "Peter Gunn." I recorded this track from the double LP, "This Is Henry Mancini," RCA (VPS-6029). "Peter Gunn" was an American private eye television series which aired on the NBC (produced by Revue Productions) and later ABC (produced by MGM Television) television networks from 1958 to 1961. The show's creator (and also writer and director on occasion) was Blake Edwards. Also directed by Robert Altman, a total of 114 thirty-minute episodes were produced. The series is remembered most for its music, especially "The Peter Gunn Theme," which won an Emmy Award and two Grammys for Henry Mancini and has become a jazz-rock standard.

he axec and hey magy, you are so both right

I listen to other Mancini stuff, and his ability to layer stuff up is really incredible. It is showcased well on this one. This version is the best because it had not yet become legendary. So it is not yet exaggerated.

There is only one good version of this tune, and this is it. The other ones, they can keep! It's something about the brass arrangement on this one that's far superior, and whoever is doing that solo on the tenor sax, or whatever that is. There is nothing like it.
