This week's theme looks like this:
...and features the work of Neal Hefti (little-known composer of the TV series theme), Danny Elfman, Shirley Walker, Elliot Goldenthal, Christopher Drake, Robert J Kral, Kevin Manthei, Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard, each of whom bring a different but entirely appropriate bat-sound to their respective incarnations of the pointy-eared grumpychops.
So pull on a pair of black tights, growl like a laryngitic lion and hang around with a skimpily-dressed boy half your age while these fine tunesmiths take you to Gotham City and back in an improbably ostentatious car. Pow!

Finally caved and downloaded Spotify to get in on this feature- damn you for finding my Batman weakness. Though I must say, it livens up a Saturday morning of writing. :)
ReplyDeleteWill Batman find The Incredible Suit in Gotham City? Tom Mankiewicz's house? Nolan's Prestige Inception room? Breaking the door of the Batmobile with a Zimmer frame?
ReplyDeleteDear Marge Gunderson was on TCM again last night. How does she find time to read The Incredible Suit? If she is not busy watching a body being fed into a wood chipper, then she has hubby Harve to look after. Fargo is a busy place with all those murders going on.
ReplyDeleteWho, I wonder, is the typical Caped Crusader follower? Sorry, I mean Incredible Suit follower?
This is fantastic, much appreciated. However, I would just the addition of R Kelly's absolutely amazingly pompous 'Gotham City' from the Batman and Robin soundtrack which unfortunately does not appear to be on spotify
