Peter Gunn ------   Album Notes and Credits Notes & Personnel Info Arranger Quincy Jones utilizes three overlapping studio bands to perform swinging renditions of a dozen Henry Mancini tunes on this Mercury LP. Bassist Major Holley, Toots Thielemans on harmonica, and Rahsaan Roland Kirk's reeds are three of the many voices that Jones employs, along with altoist Phil Woods, tenorman Zoot Sims, trumpeter Ernie Royal, and vibraphonist Gary Burton. Although generally brief (only one of the 12 songs is over four minutes), the renditions of such tunes as "Baby Elephant Walk," "Dreamsville," "Days of Wine and Roses," and "Moon River" are fresh and often lively.   Compilation Appearances Handel's Messiah-Soulful Celeb Journey To The Next Austin Powers-International Man of Mystery Best Latin Party Album In The Austin Powers-Spy Who Shagged Me 20th Century Masters:millennium Colle Ocean's Eleven Jukebox Hits Of The 80's Jukebox Hits Collection Definitive Strawberry Letter 23-Very Best Of The Ultimate Collection Kill Bill: Volume 1 (Explicit Version) Chronic Les: great Breaks From The Ch Count Basie & Friends Marvelous Miss Lee Slow Jaws 3 Body & Soul: Platinum Boyz In The Hood Gitanes Jazz: Jazz Bossa Nova '80S Dance-gold(2cd) 906 Mastercuts Jazz Cafe Rhythms Del Mundo: Cuba We All Love Ennio Morricone Jazz Number 1's 90's Soul Number 1's Very Best Of Al B Sure Mastercuts Legends:quincy Jones Herbi Best Of Brandy Number 1'S Unlimited   Associated Artists and Works Basie, Count Basie, Count Basie, Count Basie, Count Mastercuts Legends [Box] ~ Brown, James Journey To Next ~ Carter, Benny Charles, Ray Davis, Miles Davis, Miles Hancock, Herbie Haynes, Roy Lee, Peggy Original Soundtrack Original Soundtrack Original Soundtrack Original Soundtrack Taylor, Billy Taylor, Billy (Jazz) Various Artists Various Artists Misty: Vaughan & Violins/Vaughan & Voices ~ Vaughan, Sarah   Technical Info Release Date : 06/09/2009 Original Release Date : 1964 Catalog ID : B001270102 Label : Verve (USA) Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00602517995741    Product Image
