Shelly Manne & His Men Play Peter Gunn

Shelly Manne & His Men Play Peter Gunn is an album by drummer Shelly Manne's group Shelly Manne & His Men performing Henry Mancini's score from the TV show Peter Gunn. It was recorded in 1959 and released on the Contemporary label.

Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states: "Mancini encouraged Manne to use the songs as vehicles for extended solos, and the results are swinging, standing apart from the show. Candoli and particularly Geller are in top form on this fairly memorable effort".
