I'm very happy to read that the Transformers album will get a wider downloadable release.
I can only hope that they'll release other albums (volume 2, 3...) for this series as well as for G.I. Joe, as I love both Johnny Douglas's and Rob Walsh's contributions for both (and so much music is missing from the two existing albums).

I agree fingers crossed. smile

Time to post this fun video. I love the odd metering of the theme, and will happily listen to the digital release!

The First Transformers Theme Was WILDLY Confusing


This is probably a bit of a slog if you're not a musician, but the energy carries it along.


I really enjoy this guy and his enthusiasm that's so evident in his videos, but this one got me totally baffled. The end credits is not a weird time signature, it's just a terrible edit big grin someone looped the beginning and didn't do it very well. The chop comes just before the melody starts.

I also remember reading that the "autobots wage their battle.... etc" lyric was never meant to be a lyric. It was supposed to be a voice over, but it was labelled wrong. Absolutely genius managing to get them sung!


Thanks for sharing this video, that was super fun and informative!

Though I have the 2018 LP, I'm glad it's finally getting a digital release. Of course, I'd rather have it on CD, but that's not the way the world works anymore... :^(

I'll definitely be purchasing it again.


Same here, I'm happy to purchase a digital release of that 2018 album, just to have those tracks without the usual audio artefacts on vinyl. I do have to say, though, that it's still such fun to play this LP as for me it really represents teh perfect album that should have been released way back then, around 1986/87, to present highlights from the series' library cues.

Can't wait to see a release date announced for this one.

A much as the G.I. Joe album is incomplete, it's on (near) constant repeat big grin

Looking forward to more music as well. And hoping for a Vol 2. for G.I. Joe please in the near future. smile

I never had much connection to the movie

Do you mean the good one with Robert Stack, Judd Nelson and Orson Welles or the one with Megan Fox?


Since they said "the" I think we know the answer already. There are way too many of the Bay movies. Like, more than zero.
