Our Man in Hollywood

Reception

Greg Adams reviewed the album for AllMusic and wrote that "All of the selections were newly recorded for the album, and many display Mancini's skill as a composer as well as arranger and conductor".
The initial Billboard review from January 5, 1963 commented that the tracks featured the "highly stylised Mancini treatment" and noted the "wall to wall violins" and "driving percussion" of the "top-notch Hollywood instrumentalists".
