Several musical singles featuring cast members of the television show singing in-character were released in 1966: Burgess Meredith as the Penguin in "The Capture" www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkPWtL… and "The Escape" www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYGQal… , Frank Gorshin as the Riddler in "The Riddler" www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAlfr7… , and Adam West as Batman in "Miranda" www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZljPX… . In 1976 West performed a pair of novelty songs, "The Story of Batman" and "Batman and Robin", for Target Records (couldn't find them). All six of these recordings (sans the b-sides to Gorshin and West's singles) were later included on the 1997 compilation, Batmania: Songs Inspired by Batman TV Series.

In 1966, Burt Ward also recorded a limited "disc jokey only" release with Frank Zappa called "Boy Wonder, I Love You" www.youtube.com/watch?v=I95q03… .

Also in 1966, British novelty group The Scaffold produced a single called "Goodbat Nightman" www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9lcpx… (lyrics by Roger McGough, who "has written several poems" about Batman and Robin).
