Film Noir (168)

This time we’re looking at the music of film noir, that dark and gritty style that framed detective and crime films. There’s just something so musically appealing about a brooding melody that hints at the mystery and danger. It's private-eye and crime jazz that shows its slower and darker side. We’ll hear from Leith Stevens, John Barry, Quincy Jones and many more.
