In Hartford Connecticut in the late 50s/early60s, we watched these things all the time. Johnny was to Tarzan what Sean Connery was to James Bond. The actors defined their roles....great fun.  Every kid in Manchester Connecticut could do a convincing Tarzan yell....

[Mantanhattan]

Anyone know who wrote this score?

Sounds similar to Raymond Scott's "Powerhouse".

[baghend]

The track that starts at 4.0 brings back so many happy memories of the Tarzan movies, with Big John, Maureen and Johnny. Do we know who wrote it? Or what orchestra is playing this? I'll always associate it with Weismullers Tarzan (the ONLY Tarzan) and those corny, politically incorrect (now) fun and exciting old B&W pics of my childhood. Thanks for the memories-

Thanks so much for this.

Johnny didn't play Tarzan, he wás Tarzan.

The greatest hero of my youth.

Rest in peace Johnny. You deserve to be remembered forever.

[baghend]

@TheDutchCommentator You are so right!

[aucksmix]

Hey y'all -- remember the TV show Jungle Jim starring Johnny Weissmuller? Anyone remember the seaplane he used???

[sheilatx]

I remember the show itself but not the seaplane.

[aucksmix]

Thanks. Maybe my memory is scrambled, but it was a Lake amphibian plane, with a single "pusher" engine in the back of the fuselage. Or maybe it was a different show. Guess I'll never know.

Cheers and best wishes

[aucksmix]

Did a little more Internet research. He did have a seaplane - called the Sitting Duck. I'm not crazy afterall!!!

[sheilatx]

i wonder if they have the movies on dvd yet

[jfmscouse]

Yep bought the lot all 12 on Amazon last week.

[sheilatx]

well now! I am sooo jealous! My uncle used to swim with him when they were kids

[radioclash81]

@sheilatx It's been a few years ago now, but I have seen a DVD box set that had the first 4 or 5 movies in it, and they did a second volume as well. It really was a different era when these innocent adventures could be such a long running hit with the public.

[yoweyer]
