At the record store today, I came across a 1966 album Sun-Ra played on with members of his Arkestra and the Blues Project (Al Kooper's band--the guy who played keys on Dylan's "Like A Rolling Stone."). It's called Batman and Robin--The Sensational Guitars of Dan and Dale and it's an album of theme songs from the 1960's Batman and Robin t.v. series. I was a bit flummoxed when I found it while I was browsing through the Sun Ra section, but after some sleuthing (i.e. Googling), I discovered that the album was strictly a mercenary project--"to cash in on the popular Adam West TV series" writes Station Manager Ken on the WMFU blog. You can listen to it in its entirety on said blog here.
Currently on an Edgar Wright kick and watching as much of Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, and Hot Fuzz as time permits.
