Cop Show Themes

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
LP (Item 1395) RCA, 1976 -- Condition: Used

One of the funkiest albums ever from Henry Mancini -- a brilliant reworking of hit 70s cop show themes, put together with a really jazzy groove! The group's a big one -- filled with hip players who include Clare Fischer on organ, Artie Kane on electric piano and harpsichord, Don Menza on tenor, Lee Ritenour on guitar -- all instruments that are used strongly to help kick things nicely on the set, with a vibe that's right up there with the best funky 70s soundtracks. Harvey Mason is on drums, bringing up the bottom a bit more than usual for Mancini -- and the choice of material really makes the record cook -- with tracks that include "Kojak", "SWAT", "Police Woman", "Rockford Files", "Hawaii Five O", "Streets Of San Francisco", "Bumper's Theme", and "Baretta's Theme".  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
