The AP is reporting that Neil Hefti, the composer of the original 1960′s Batman theme, passed away today. Interestingly enough the article said that the original theme was a Top 40 hit and won a Grammy Award in 1966 for best instrumental theme.

Go figure.

I watched the shit out of the old black and white Batman as a kid and as a result that song is ingrained into my brain.

God speed Mr. Hefti.
