Be aware, this album has NOTHING to do with the "Batman" TV series or any of the movies. Aside from the cover art, a riff on the TV series theme song, and the song titles, there is nothing here that is related to the "Batman" franchise. That said - this is a true "flash from the past", music that you might have heard in numerous smaller clubs across the United States during the mid-1960's. While others have dismissed it, my fave cut is "Flight of the Batman" complete with the silly sound effects ... Read More

Time to give credit where due! I heard this album over and over from about age 5 until maybe age 10 and, admittedly, it sunk in. However, to hear it now, in my forties, and as a self-described connoisseur of music, I'm quite impressed! I'm eclectic about my favorite tracks, but here goes:
"Batman and Robin Over the Roofs" has a real 'sixties funk sound that perhaps only someone from that era can relate to, but the groove is so engaging I think the song will capture anyone with a soul ... Read More

Alright, we know what this is, so here's a simple breakdown:
The title track is a classic rockin' R&B version of the Batman theme, "Batman and Robin Over the Roofs" is an excellent jam and "Robin's Theme" is smokin'!!
"Batman and Robin Swing" is the most interesting of the classically based pieces, "Batmobile Wheels" has fairly interesting classical brass hooks, "Riddler's Retreat" is a quite nice classical sax rendition.
"Penguin Chase" is an odd organ workout ... Read More

I still have the LP of this album and was very glad to get the CD. Although this is not the original TV theme music, it is very close and certainly has all the 60's feel of the original...
The Batman Theme is the main reason for most folks buying this album but my favorite piece is The Joker is Wild...and I didn't see this cut on any other Batman album.
If you're looking for great 60s, discoteque style music, this is a great album!

I LOVE THIS ALBUM. Seriously. Track 2/Batman's Batmorang (sic) is one of my favorite all-time jams. Why? I don't know. I love the horns for one.
Batman and Robin over the Roofs? It's almost seven amazing minutes long.
This album is ALL OVER THE PLACE. Jazz, Blues, Rock, Surf (Punk) Guitar!
There is not a real bum track here except maybe the overly silly "Flight of the Batman" with the penny whistle (?) sound effects.
The guitar in The Penguin Chase is pure Surf Guitar! ... Read More
