5 out of 5 stars The search for the good ol' Batman LP.......2006-07-04

How many of you guys out there had a Batman LP when you were a kid, played it to death, then thought it was lost forever? I had one. Batman by the Bat Boys. To this day, I haven't seen that on CD. The Sun Ra LP is pretty cool. I remember it because a kid in the 2nd grade had it. It was the "IN" thing to have a Batman LP. I wish they would all get re-issued on CD.

This one is so bizarre it really needs to be heard to be understood. Evidentally, somehow producer Tom Wilson managed to convince Sun Ra to bring several members of his band (including John Gilmore, Marshall Allen and Pat Patrick) into the studio with parts of the Blues Project (who I confess I'm not overly familiar with) to record the Adam West Batman TV show theme and a bunch of loose jams for a record for a toy company.

Yeah, it sounds about like that too.

It's a terribly unexciting album-- straightahead blues jams on a bunch of classical pieces retitled. And the playing isn't particularly exciting. And while "Batman and Robin Over the Roofs" manages to cut loose and really features some fine playing, for the most part, all the pieces are edited before any of the playing gets particularly interesting.

A curiosity likely only of interest to Sun Ra or Blues Project completionists, everyone else should probably skip this one.

What a hoot!! I got this on vynil at the age of 6 right at the height of the Batman craze and even though it wasn't music from the TV show as such, it STILL was a lot of fun. Gotta love those twangy guitars and groovy brass with good 'ol Sun Ra adding his wonderful spook organ to the proceedings. Who'd have thunk it, Sun Ra playing for a far different and younger audience and us for many years being none the wiser.

5 out of 5 stars I'm getting this even though I still have the original.......2004-08-02

...not my original. I got mine in 1970 as part of this weird Batman Back to School Package, complete with Batman clear pencilcase gun. Like I said, weird. I lost the record in Baltimore and bought another off a classmate in '77. Anyway, its a great listen and importantly you learn to admire updated jams of public domain classical music. Rockin! Buy this album and you won't really need -50 beloved classical pieces- as seen on tv anymore. You will also be compelled to dance like Adam West.

5 out of 5 stars Blew My Mind!.......2004-05-13

I got this record for Christmas from my Grandmother when I was six years old. I listened to it over and over and over. I kept listening even after it started to skip. I let the skips run for hours. Did Sun Ra have any idea what this might do to little kids? I became a musician, built a Gas Tank Orchestra, and made a loop library. I can honestly say this record changed my life. I spent years looking for other music like this, not discovering until a few years ago that Sun Ra was behind it. No, it's not like all the other Sun Ra records, which I also like, but it does have that essential mind expanding quality of far out ecstatic jamming.
