Jan & Dean Meet Batman

Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue
Country: UK
Released: 1987
Genre: Rock
Style: Surf

Originally released in mono on Liberty Records in 1966, this classic Bam-Caruso reissue sources from the stereo vinyl released a little later. We should never be surprised just how off-beat Bam-Caruso were, as shown in this nutty Batman fake radio play with a surf twist. Jan Berry & Dean Torrence rope in all their chums to perform as Batman and The Boy Blunder to fight crime against a host of villains on the streets of Surf City. At times brilliant and hilarious, there are a few cringe-worthy moments but thankfully the whole thing does capture the camp fun of the original tv series.. They even poke fun at surfer rivals, The Beach Boys.
