Oh hey, it's my old thread. Great catch on that promo vinyl. Talk about lost treasures. Not sure if people will get fussy here talking about a questionable source, but I've had those tracks for years. They're great.
The Canada-based Amazing Spider-Band had the blessing of Ray Ellis for this album. Really great stuff. Sadly, the album is long out-of-print. The Reverbnation site is the best place to listen to it.

Greg, This is quite good. It was on iTunes and Ive never seen it again. The Spider-Man Swinging 60’s Cartoon Retro Redux Collection by Moxxi (Vaughn Smith). All but one or two of the major themes from Season One were on there.
I'm not familiar e´with the older scores. For me the 1994 Series' music is truly awesome. Pure adrenaline pumping action and kick ass themes. Some wunderfull suspense cues as well. Great stuff really. This can hold up against any nineties blockbuster score IMO.
If anyone will finally able to release it I'd party for a year ;-)
one of my holy grails is Stu Philip's Spider-man music. That prominent 3 note motif that actually suggests "spi-der-man" is catchy as heck and the harmonic development he puts it through just in those opening and closing credits is fantastic.
I don't care for the funky sax/clavichord version as much. It's a little more dated whereas the other theme transcends the era and is as good and relatable now as it was back in the late 70s.
Almost word for word I share this sentiment. My fav theme from the series and definitely has staying power. Would love to hear all of the series music put together as well one day...

As I'm a huge fan of the S1 60's Spidey music, I Google searched this and found this:
