Bat Music

Post by John Mack »

As many of you know, I like the music from the series and you could say it's my "main thrust." Look at my avatar and you'll see a photo of the Nelson Riddle 45 that came out in 1966. Can you read what it says on the top? It says, "Original TV Series Version." I never noticed this until I added my avatar. I don't want anyone being mislead by that. It contains Nelson Riddle's version of the theme and it's hardly the "Original TV Series Version." Weird. I own this 45 and have had a copy for years and never noticed that. On a good note (pun intended) the "B" side has a tune called, "Nelson's Riddler" and it's a full-blown treatment of his Riddler Theme song. WOW! But on the down side, I wonder how many people purchased this 45 expecting to hear the original theme. Holy false advertising!

Hi Phil,

The Batman Theme is the same one as on the 1966 Batman soundtrack LP, so if you own that you already have it You can hear it on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoA9RY12JQs As for "Nelson's Riddler" I'm not sure what the legal problems might be uploading that. Sorry.
