Album Info

Release Date: 1990

Label: Fresh Squeezed Records

In 1990, the new Batman movie was coming out and Tiny suggested Mike Pinera rewrite his song ‘Ride Captain Ride’ as ‘Ride Batman Ride.’ Pinera suggested they record a brand new song, ‘Batman Rides Again,’ but by the time it was complete, the Batman soundtrack had been locked-in. They then began working to complete ‘Dick Tracy Rides Again’ shortly after Warren Beatty’s Dick Tracy was announced. When Touchstone Pictures said it wouldn't accept ‘unsolicited’ material, the song was released on the unknown Fresh Squeezed label, with ‘Ready For Love,' another Pinera composition, as the B-side.
