Album Notes & Community Reviews

Capitalizing on the massive television and cinematic espionage craze, keyboard virtuoso Dick Hyman delivers a highly stylized, cinematic romp on the Lowrey organ. The album heavily features brassy big band arrangements playing punchy, swinging interpretations of iconic spy themes. It is a wildly entertaining, impeccably recorded highlight of mid-sixties space-age pop and lounge music.
