Photos - 1966 BATMAN TV Show Theme Song Records from Japan

To quote the 80's Rock Band, The VAPORS, "I think I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so". This post was created to show a few examples of some beautiful 1966 BATMAN TV Show Theme Song Records from Japan. I love the combination of vintage graphics with Japanese lettering ( I like the 2nd one the best ). Plus, they're really hard to find. Now, after you drool over the pics then please check out the video too. It's the VAPORS singing their hit song, "Turning Japanese". Since I mentioned the band I knew I had to post it, ha ha! I know it's not "Batman-related" but it's a great song & you won't be able to get the tune out of your head all day long, ha!!

Cool BATMAN THEME For Android Phone

Here's a strange Batman-related item I came across last night while surfing the web, a "Batman Theme" for your Android Phone. Now I don't know how good the quality is because I don't have that kind of phone. Plus, I don't know anybody who has downloaded it, but it looks pretty cool. It cost 99 cents so that should give you an idea. Here's a LINK to check it out & if you do get it please give us a review. As a legal side-note, the Bat-Blog is not responsible for this thing screwing-up your phone, ha ha!

Bobbi's Special 1966 BATMAN TV SHOW BIRTHDAY CAKE!!

There's a story behind this special Batman Birthday Cake. The flowers along the top of the cake are blue and yellow for Adam West's costume and the bottom flowers are red, yellow, and green leaves for Burt Ward's costume ( their names are written by their colors ). This cake was for a special party for a Bat-Fan named Bobbi & she loved the the idea of a Batman-themed Birthday. I mean, it's just too cool! The neat thing is she got many compliments on this cake. Plus, that t-shirt is one of her favorites because it signifies the 1966 Batman exclusively. Same with the cake. It was 1966 themed as well. They've been her heroes since 1977 when she was first introduced to them on TV ( She was 7 yrs old at the time ). The great thing is that she got to meet both Adam & Burt this past April in Anaheim, CA. It was a definite dream come true! So, a special thanks goes out to Bobbi Lynn for sharing her wonderful photo & great story. She got to meet the Dynamic Duo!
