He’s our man!

August 15th, 2008 in Cartoons, Kiddies, Soundtracks by lpcoverlover | 5 Comments

Roger Ramjet and The American Eagles “Amazing Exploits of a Space-Age Hero” RCA Camden (1966) This TV cartoon series ran from 1965 -1968. Famous California radio personality Gary Owens (the original voice of Space Ghost and the announcer on Rowan and Martin’s Laugh-In) provided the voice of Roger Ramjet. The series was written by Gene Moss and Jim Thurman. These liner notes above are great and tell the tale! (Check out the show intro here).

Roger Ramjet and his Eagles

Fighting for our freedom

Fly through and in outer space

Not to join him but to beat him.

Roger Ramjet he’s our man

Hero of our nation

For his adventure just be sure

And stay tuned to this station.

Come and join us all you kids

For lots of fun and laughter

As Roger Ramjet and his men

Get all the crooks they’re after.

Roger Ramjet he’s our man

Hero of our nation

For his adventure just be sure

And stay tuned to this station.

    To the tune of ‘Yankee Doodle Dandy’, right?

    They used to show this on British TV alongside the old Mighty Mouse, Batfink and Rocky and Bullwinkle.

    I just found one of these in a local Value Village (along with a big stack of Mickey Katz records). I didn’t even know it existed prior to that golden moment of discover. Glad I’m not the only one to find it!

    In the schoolyard, we used to sing “Roger Ramjet, he’s our man/Hero of the nation/The only thing that’s wrong with him/Is mental retardation.”
