For all you fans of jazzy theme music for movies and TV and such, I have just discovered a gold mine!

Check out [Jazz Noir [part 1]](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjU0FSHLMrw&ebc=ANyPxKoEQPGeXITMSC_R9ct7GXSnKrFTjVNoKbnBaNG3IJVtz-cF7gXnFTmOIv0APdr4EvpbZCFhrKw0I0eyd3fuIJK7MNn87Q) and share your thoughts on the collection (I have yet to examine Parts 2 & 3 – but Part 1 is indeed impressive.)

Great music from many bands and composers going back at least to the 1940s.

I have a similar CD called Crime Jazz. Wonderful stuff.

You might also check out the theme song to the Japanese anime **Cowboy Bebop**. Amazing opening song: [- YouTube](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw3fN3OPk3A)

There’s some good stuff here, no doubt.
