Combine excellent music and incomprehensible dialog and sound effects and you have one of the weirdest novelty records of all-time!! Produced by the Little Golden Book Company to cash in on the popular television show themes at the time! Took me years to find this one after annihilating my childhood copy!
As for "Three on 1", that was Golden's series of 45 "extended play" records that featured three sides of their most popular "singles" on one record- usually, one side often featured a 'two part" recording {like "Peter Gunn"}, which was originally issued as two sides of a single 45 or 78 release. Don Elliott's combo was responsible for this; he not provided the "vocals", he also played vibraphone as well.

I find it unusual that Golden Records, in 1959, released their own version of themes from TV shows that were telecast too late for kids to stay up and watch {"PETER GUNN", Mondays, 9pm(et), NBC/"77 SUNSET STRIP", Fridays, 9:30-10:30pm(et), ABC}, and which featured some of the most violent scenes ever staged for a "detective drama"...
