An exclusive release for the Record Store Day offshoot…
You might know that Disney’s been releasing a series of vinyl singles featuring music from the 1960s Marvel Super Heroes cartoon series, along with the Marvel Marching Society. And you might know that Disney has been planning a special 2024 Record Store Day-Black Friday album that collects all the audio from the releases.

Well dig this SNEAK PEEK at the LP, including the track listing, according to the Record Store Day website:

2. Marvel Superheroes Have Arrived
3. Captain America Theme
4. Iron Man Theme
5. Mighty Thor Theme

What a surprise! I never ever expected that a vinyl album would be released of music from the 1966 “Marvel Super Heroes” TV Show. The theme songs were great and after all these years I can still remember them. As a kid I watched it broadcast in syndication on WOR-TV, Channel 9 in New York weekdays in the afternoons. If I remember correctly, Mondays was Captain America, Tuesdays was The Hulk, Wednesdays was Iron Man, Thursdays was Thor and Fridays was Sub-Mariner. I loved that show despite the limited rough animation – which I feel gave it it’s charm. The episodes were straight from the comic books as if they came to life. Perhaps, Disney will finally release an official DVD or Blu-Ray set of the show. I sure hope so.

I know that records are the hip, cool thing right now, but I really wish they’d offer a CD version as well. I’d snap that up in a heartbeat!

I can still be heard around the house singing the Hulk theme.
