HENRY MANCINI (1924-1994) - VINYL THE MUSIC FROM PETER GUNN (200G) (LIMITE [VINYL]

Popis - THE MUSIC FROM PETER GUNN (200G) (LIMITE [VINYL]:
The 'Peter Gunn' score is a key piece of jazz and pop music history. Back in 1958, 'Peter Gunn' was one of the unexpected hits of the new television season, capturing the imagination of millions of viewers by mixing private eye action with a jazz setting. Composer Henry Mancini was more than fluent in jazz, and his music nailed down the popularity of the series. With the main title theme, a driving, ominous, exciting piece of music to lead off the album, 'The Music From Peter Gunn' became a huge hit, charting extraordinarily high for a television score and doing so well that RCA Victor came back the next year asking for a second helping ('More Music From Peter Gunn') from Mancini. This LP is remastered at 45rpm, taking the sound from the original tapes, and comes in a deluxe tip-on gatefold sleeve.
