51163When Saturday Morning was Fun<p>Welcome to September,&nbsp;hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day!</p> <p>I have something a bit unique to share. <strong>Herb Klynn</strong> was Production Chief at UPA animation studio in Los Angeles. Both Herb Klynn and his friend <strong>Jules Engel</strong> had a passion for The Lone Ranger since childhood. These two men created their own production company to revive The Lone Ranger for a new generation. Herb Klynn was especially eager to improve the incidental musical score, lacking in previous productions, to match the majesty of the William Tell Overture.</p> <p>Development for a new Lone Ranger caught the attention of CBS, with program planners suggesting animation instead of live-action. A cartoon series with dramatic music would be unique as a network offering, and it would coordinate well with the new CBS series, The Wild, Wild West, which premiered in 1965.</p> <p>The result was television magic! A new Lone Ranger animated series aired Saturday mornings on CBS for 1966, complimented by The Wild, Wild West live-action series as a Saturday evening primetime show for CBS. There was a bit of crossover of stories and characters between the two, but the outstanding feature of the Lone Ranger cartoon was the extreme 2-D flatness of the artwork highlighted by heavy black shadowing similar to comic book art.&nbsp;</p> <p>But the star of this show was the music. All incidental back scores were performed by the same orchestra that performed the William Tell Overture theme!</p> <p>Listen to the voice actor Paul Winchell as the evil Rainmaker. This is top quality work that made The Lone Ranger a standout among Saturday morning cartoons from the 1960&#39;s.</p> <p><iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qWVUPHNpAYw?si=KSj4cmt7xWJwOI0Q" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p> eddstarrSep 05, 2025View

51158If There Was a Retro Hall of Fame...<p>My next nomination for a Retro Hall Of Fame is the Harry Potter series (but ONLY the first six books and first four movies), as I am of the opinion that the series peaked with the sixth book and only the first four movies were good adaptations of the books...and even then they still weren&#39;t as good as their book counterparts. Plus, only the first six books and the first four movies can truly qualify as retro right now.</p> <p><strong>I do own the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack for the Prisoner Of Azkaban movie on vinyl and here is a picture of it below:</strong></p> <p><strong><img alt="" height="667" src="http://retro-daze.org/upload/06C6DB74-E175-40D4-8D33-3EAAC58D8DD2.jpeg" width="500" /></strong></p> BionicleFan1994Sep 03, 2025View
