Redefining television, star and creator Garry Shandling built an unprecedented cult following for The Larry Sanders Show, helping to make HBO a household name. The critically acclaimed show won over 20 Cable Ace Awards, as well as the 1994 Peabody Award for excellence in Radio and TV. As Music Director and Composer, Frank wrote the theme and music for the entire series. In keeping up with the Late Night battles of the time, and redefining the scoring style for TV comedies, Fitzpatrick recorded all the show’s music with his all-star Larry Sanders Show Band: a sextet featuring Gerald Albright (#1 contemporary Jazz soloist), James Gadson (James Brown), Chuck WIld (Men at Work), Ross Bolton (Al Jarreau), and Alfonso Johnson (Weather Report). The show was also the stage for many musical guests including Los Lobos, k.d. lang, Sting, Elvis Costello, the Wu Tang Clan and Beck.
