Craig Stevens, Lola Albright, and Peter Gunn

TVC 654.6: Music journalist Jon Burlingame (Music for Prime Time, Dreamsville: Henry Mancini, Peter Gunn, and Music for TV Noir) discusses some of the many innovations that Blake Edwards and Peter Gunn brought to network television (including "night for night" shooting, one year before Quinn Martin would make that into an art form), and how the romance between Peter Gunn and Edie Hart was very provocative for its time. Dreamsville: Henry Mancini, Peter Gunn, and Music for TV Noir is available from BearManor Media.
