{"product_id":"henry-mancini-mr-lucky-goes-latin","title":"Henry Mancini - Mr. Lucky Goes Latin","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen Mr. Lucky Goes Latin was released in 1961, Henry Mancini was at the zenith of his influence. Having already redefined the \"private eye\" sound with the original Mr. Lucky and Peter Gunn, Mancini turned his attention to the Bossa Nova and Afro-Cuban rhythms beginning to sweep through American lounges. This wasn’t merely a \"Latin\" cash-in; it was a meticulously crafted extension of the cool, jazz-inflected world Mancini had built for the small screen.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBy 1961, the \"Exotica\" movement was merging with mainstream jazz, and Mancini was its most elegant architect. While the original Mr. Lucky soundtrack relied on the ethereal, haunting sounds of the organ and lush strings, this \"Latin\" reimagining stripped away the mystery in favor of a vibrant, rhythmic swagger. It captured a moment in time when the jet-set era was looking toward Rio and Havana for its evening soundtrack, blending Hollywood’s polished production with the authentic heat of the percussion line.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist(s): \u003c\/strong\u003eConductor – Henry Mancini\u003cbr\u003eConcertmaster – Erno Neufeld\u003cbr\u003eBaritone Saxophone [Baritone Horn] – Ted Nash\u003cbr\u003eFrench Horn – Vince DeRosa\u003cbr\u003eMandoguitar [Guitars And Mandolins] – Bob Bain, Laurindo Almeida\u003cbr\u003eOrgan [Hammond Organ] – Bobby Hammack\u003cbr\u003ePercussion [Percussionist] – Frank Flynn, Larry Bunker, Milt Holland, Shelly Manne\u003cbr\u003ePiano [Tinpañola] – Jimmy Rowles\u003cbr\u003eReeds – Ronny Lang\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecording Info: \u003c\/strong\u003eRecorded January 19, 1961, at RCA's Music Center of the World, Hollywood, California\u003cbr\u003eProducer -  Dick Peirce        Engineer - Al Schmitt\u003cbr\u003eSourced from a 4-track tape\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComponents used for Transfer:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis transfer leverages precision analog playback and mastering-grade digital conversion.
