So, there I was having a good online chat with some of my film music pals here, and a photograph of a young Henry Mancini with his kids was produced. And suddenly my thoughts turned to his penis.

I would bet a half pint of PG Tips that there was an interview on TV - I can't place when it would have been, but I have the feeling that it was in the mid to late '80s - in which a group of Hollywood people were reminiscing about the good old days, and one lady guest (from the wardrobe department? An actress?) mentioned that she'd been at a party, and Henry Mancini had to go out to the conservatory to change his trousers, and they all had a good giggle when his "amazing swinging organ" (I thought it was Jimmy Smith who had that) was mentioned as having been seen.

Does anyone recall seeing a chat show with this content, or does it sound like I'm making stories up again?

Is that where the title Baby Elephant Walk comes from?

I've never heard that story, and he doesn't mention it in 'Did they mention the music' which I hsve just finished.

Wow. filmscoremonthly is at a new low. You are disrespectful to Mr.Mancini and many who are on this website.

But I understand this is the new normal for our time

Well, I miss one chat and the convo turns to X-rated sordicity (I hope that's a word) and film music members (tee hee).
Did it happen during the 'swingin 60s'?
For shame, Graham, for shame wink

Absolutely not! I'm pretty sure this was actually on a chat show and I'm trying to find out if anyone can tell me which one it was. It was all done with great warmth and humour, and I don't think Mr Mancini would have been offended. Quite the opposite.

That is, of course, unless I'm making it up. But I don't think I am. Not this time.

Ha, ha...in which Zoom chat was this brought up? It sounds like something from our "Cheers" chats, but I can't remember it.

I’m sure he was thinking about his pen’s.

A bit middle 'C,' Graham, if not 'C' sharp. Don't think there's a 'C' flat. Is there?

Well this finally explains the original title of his book, "Did They Mention My P@&%$?" Thank goodness for sensible editors!

Peter Gunn is good!

The penis? ... The penis is evil.

I wonder if this incident inspired his Hit Single 'Hangin' Out' wink

It's common knowledge that the subject of this thread was known as the Pink Panther.

I don't know of the TV interview, but I do remember this exact topic coming up on these very boards some 20 years ago, in a thread that got locked very quickly (although I think this thread has already outlasted it).
