Quoted from docquest:if the music isnt authentic score from nelson riddle
Nelson Riddle? Don't you mean Neal Hefti?
That's the thing I most like about the idea of your Diner re-theme - using all that super groovy bat-music in the background. Big improvement over Diner, great as the game is...

Quoted from docquest:Neal Hefti only did the main theme. All the groovy score that happens during the show is Nelson Riddle (at least for seasons 1+2).
Sounds great via pinsound on my Diner. If I get the Stern version and it doesnt have enough Nelson Riddle in it I'll definitely be adding it via pinball browser.
Nelson did a lot of movie scores. I was watching the John Wayne film "El Dorado" and noticed the score reminded me of Batman. I watched the credits and sure enough, saw Nelson did the score for that movie in 66 right after Batman.
Shit, I need to look into this further. I have a CD which claims to be entirely Neil Hefti and which has various themes ("The Batusi", "Mr. Freeze", "Evil Plot to Blow Up Batman") but it makes not mention of Nelson Riddle. The man has been robbed!

Quoted from docquest:If its this CD, I have it and its not very good. I think the only music on it from the actual show is the main theme.
That's the one! I guess I haven't watched the show in some time, as I didn't catch that those tunes aren't in the show. Surprised you don't care for it, I've always loved its mod-a-go-go goofy/grooviness. On the other hand, I haven't heard the Nelson Riddle stuff (well, not since I was a kid I guess), so I may be in for a real treat. Thanks!
