  One section of that theme (the part immediately following the introduction, and which repeats itself a couple of times, the "diddly-oop-a-doo-da da diddly-oop-a doo-da da diddly-oop-a-doo-da da dum" part) is George Gershwin's "Rialto Ripples."  I've always been curious as to the origin of Kovacs' theme for that reason.

    I've been doing Ernie for 30+ years, and I've never heard the original, 
    complete, studio version of his theme song, Chinese Blues.  Here it is, 
    with no Jack Lemmon voice-over, no anything but IT.  Wild.
