I grew up watching shitty cartoons like this and eating Cheerios.
At the time, the animation didn't seem so cheap and I didn't notice the various cost-cutting measures taken by the obviously under-funded studio like re-using footage from other episodes as well as re-using footage from other cartoon series'.
But fortunately, they didn't skimp on the music.
The theme song in particular has become well known even by those who are too young to remember the cartoon.
The background music for the show was a cool mix of surf-rock and bongo heavy crime jazz, and even though I haven't seen the show in years, I can still remember how some of the tunes went
Thanks to Youtube, I can fill in the gaps in my memory and scribble out this song, (title unknown).
The tune in question happens at around 1:53 in the video, it's hard to hear over the action, and I've never been able to find a recording of it but it's fun to play as a bluesy 6/8.
Also, if anyone wants the .MUS files so they can transpose the charts or do anything else with them let me know.
