    Killer British versions of 'Call Me Mister Tibbs', 'Shaft' 'Bullit' 'Mission Impossible' and loads more from man like Chaquito (John Gregory)

    Lovers of funky 1970s big band sounds are in for a real treat as it contains two of the very best albums by Chaquito - an alias of British arranger-composer-conductor John Gregory. This powerhouse big band was comprised of many of the players from the great Ted Heath Orchestra, and this fact allied with Gregory's brilliant arrangements made the Chaquito Big Band a force to be reckoned with. Both 'Spies and Dolls' and 'TV Thrillers' feature the very best in late 1960s and early '70s film and TV music, represented by composers of the calibre of Quincy Jones, Lalo Schifrin, Isaac Hayes, Wally Stott and Dave Grusin. John Gregory creates stunning, electrifying versions of famous themes such as Mission Impossible, The French Connection, They Call Me Mister Tibbs, The Anderson Tapes, Hawaii 5-0 and A Man Called Ironside, all of which contain plenty of solo space for the virtuoso skills of the Chaquito band personnel. As well as Gregory's own Spies and Dolls, among the lesser-known but equally superb themes on offer are The Name of the Game, It Takes a Thief and The Spy's Wife. Remastered fron the original analague stereo tapes. First time on CD.
