    Hey,that's cool. I think I hear some similar tones in some of the debut music of the Batman stuff,but that one's definitely more pronounced. Great ear!

    I can only remember that I had as a kid. It was Batman Robin meets Man-bat. I listened to it all the time. I wish I still had it!!

    Rob and I are actually going to record a new episode this weekend. It's been a while.

    Rob's blog site is also a great place to listen, read along, and learn more about Power Records:

    The Action "Comes Alive" As You Read!!

    Thanks, buddy! I really appreciate that. Labor of love. If they put out a CD of the library music they used for the soundtracks, I swear I'd buy it.

    A small cue, but take a listen to Jerry Goldsmith in Power Records. Skip to 5:45:

    I still have a few of those. I just became a grandpa last year and fished them back out of storage so I could introduce them to my grandson. One year old and he starts dancing whenever he hears the Batman 66 theme song.

    I'd like to get the Conan 45 set, but that and the Marvel Frankenstein seem to be some of the more rare. They really take me back though... So much fun.

    I have some of the LP's, and some of the 45's, don't think I have the books for the 45s though. I do want to get the GI Joe ones, one of these days

    Definitely check out Chris' podcast. I admire Chris for doing it. Chris, hit me up, I'd love to be a guest! I love Power Records, and will always sing their praises. They are the soundtracks of Mego, sharing similar licenses and advertising sensibilities.

    Here's my collection of LPs, not including my book and records and 7 inch records:



    I spent a ridiculous amount of time about a decade ago scanning in the cover art front and back, fixing blemishes, and digitizing all the stories. I tried to get the best copies I could afford at the time. I'm pretty satisfied with what I have, but I am missing some important ones. I just get a kick out of seeing them all in my iTunes library. I love that I could listen to them for 22 hours and 7 minutes, according to iTunes.

    Power Records are awesome. Still have some of my original ones from when I was a kid... and lots of them on MP3 now, too.

    Is there a good site to download mp3s of power records or the haunted Halloween lps ?
    I'd love play them to my coworkers.
