Synopsis

Product Description
Peter Gunn was considered something of a ground breaking television detective series, earning numerous plaudits during its run. However, it is for its music that it has become most synonymous, earning composer Henry Mancini an Emmy Award and two Grammys. Whilst other series used generic music, Henry Mancini decided to utilise jazz, giving the series a distinctive feel and also translating its popularity to record buyers, who made The Music From Peter Gunn a #1 smash. It is the theme itself that is perhaps best remembered, but the rest of the music stands up to scrutiny.
