Anyone besides me a big fan?

O.K. I'm interested, not sure you're serious but you seem to know your stuff.
Don't know much about him...Moon River? **** loads of film scores also!
What else?

If you just sit down and listen to his music minus the films its just so surreal you could almost call it psychedelic. He was a huge influence on trip-hop, Deep House, and Acid Jazz. I have strange tastes what can I say.

Ha, ha, you definately have and interesting too!
Definately need to know more about Mancini ,can you tell me more?
Like who he influenced in particular?

I am a huuuuge fan of Mancini, but mostly of his work on the Breakfast at Tiffany's soundtrack. That album is pure gold. I seriously used to listen to it every day in middle school. My grandfather recommended it to me as a kid, and I never looked back.

Sorry for necromancing the thread, but today I was listening to the Pianoriental album Linsaholic that won a FAIR club recognition, and I got thinking about Henry Mancini again.

Satchmo, besides Breakfast at Tiffany's and Pink Panther, do you have any other song/album recommendations?

Here are my favorites:

This is great for dinner parties.

Good for background music while playing Clue.

This always puts me in the mood.

So, there you go. Enjoy!
