Minutes ago the radio programme "The Jazz Lounge" played Elmer Bernstein's brilliant theme to the motion picture, Walk on the Wild Side (1962) ― this recording being the cover version arranged by Oliver Nelson, and performed by the Jimmy Smith Big Band. Great stuff.
This reminded me of a certain banked tweet of mine, now uploaded!
When I read that comment by Bernstein at the time, I realized that I too would pick Goldsmith as the composer if I were a film's producer.
