If you are already a fan, you may have most of these tunes. Otherwise, it's a nice but brief overview of Mancini's genius.

It should get a 5 star rating, but..

(4 out of 5 stars)

"It is a chopped and patched cd! It has two selections among others that were only available from a very obscure LP called 3 Great Bands, with Prado and Hirt. "Bluesy" features a smooth solo by the ever grand soloist for Mancini, Jack Sheldon, who also puts a very catchy "Lawrence of Arabia" theme ending. This is almost surely worth the price, but then listen to the Ellington tune "In A Mellow Mood" and you'll be blown away. Where these tunes come from is an even greater mystery to me...the # GB I told you about was only an RCA promo thing, and not a Mancini effort. So take this one and run because you'l not find these selections anywhere else! It is reminiscent of "Uniquely" and "Big Band'67" and as jazzy as Gunn and others of the early RCA genre. You'll love it, and the prices it is being offerred at is a bargain."
