Spiderman (1967-70) The Original Background Music!
Just like anybody else who has ever seen the late sixties Spiderman cartoon, I have always been a big big fan of that series' music. Over the years I discovered that there were a lot of people out there just like me who put tape recorders to their TV to capture the great music playing in the background. Well, I recently stumbled across the masters to the music from the 2nd and 3rd seasons. All the music came from the KPM Music library in England. I put together a podcast today that sets the original muddy sounds that played beneath the original Spiderman cartoon next to these recently discovered, crystal clear sounding masters. Learn all about the history of how an American comic book character was animated in New York, recorded by Canadian voice actors in Toronto and featured amazing music from a stock library in England in an essay I composed here.Listen: The Spiderman Background Music Podcast!
