I wish I still had my old albums. I now have the "More Music from Peter Gunn" CD which includes the Peter Gunn theme and some cuts from "Mr. Lucky". I much prefer his original version of the main theme to the Ray Anthony version that you hear on the radio occassionally. Each cut was the theme for a particular character or mood in the TV show. It was very revolutionary for TV music.
Part of the fun is the band. Vince DeRosa on horn!!! It reminds me of the time I got to sit in on a Stan Kenton rehearsal when he was using some of the same musicians.
It would be fun to see re-runs of the original show, too.
