Mystery: Part 3

Two more themes for those interested in Mystery! The first is the spiritual father of the show: Lord Peter Wimsey. Lord Wimsey actually was shown on Masterpiece Theater back in the 1970's and it was so popular that it inspired the folks at WGBH in Boston to start up their own show based on mystery literary content.



The second is Reilly: Ace of Spies. I know very little of this one, but the theme is the Romance from the Gadfly Suite by Dmitri Shostkovitch and it is quite beautiful.



If I could find a copy, I'd put Rumpole of the Bailey in here as well, but I haven't found a seperate recording of that theme as of yet.
