MOVIE AND TV SOUNDTRACKS

This listing was taken from Soundtrack Collector and it is used as a base in order to relate all Mancini recordings. I will be checking and updating this information. For this first part, for most of them there is no recording of the soundtrack and we can find lucky to find at least the theme for these movies. In fact, it wasn't long ago when soundtracks were not attractive to record companies and only after the great success of scores by Henry Mancini and others, that more soundtracks were recorded. 
This listing includes all TV, movies and broadway recordings composed by Mr. Henry Mancini.

"The way I worked with these composers -- they'd come into my office and play the cues on the piano for me. And I liked them or didn't like them. And if I didn't like something, most of the boys squawked. But Hank [Mancini] would never do that . . . He'd pick it up, and come back an hour later. He'd sit down and play something else. I never critized the music itself, just the dramatic application."
