Howdy, Kemlo.

The song is the theme music from an old American television show,
"Peter Gunn." It was written by Henry Mancini. The show ran in the US
from 1958 through 1961.

You can verify this by going to this site, which features a midi of
the "Peter Gunn" theme:

A big-band version in MP3 format:

The fact that I recognized this tune instantly certainly dates me as
an oldster. ;-)

Best,
Pink
