This track was released twice in the US in 1966, the first on Mike (a local indie label) and then on Warner Brothers.Very few US garage  bands from the mid 60s got UK releases of their 45s in the 60s. The Riddlers were one of the few who did, along with "We the People", "The Human Beinz" and "The Nightcrawlers" (all of which are very rare!Have a listen.............. their version of the "Batman theme" is a cross between freakbeat and surf,  sort of  Link Wray meets the Pretty Things  & then a bit of  The Sonics.
Great original 45.

Please also note that as of 30th April 2012 the cost of shipping a 7" 45 to Europe and the Rest of the World from Great Britain has effectively doubled - hence the rise in my postage costs. Customers should feel free to check the UK Royal Mail website to check.  With the cost of mailers and the 5% Paypal surcharge on all payments this price rise is unfortunately beyond my control.
