Bat-Music #14 - The Gotham City Crime Fighters - Who Stole the Batmobile?
Garage rockers The Gotham City Crime Fighters performed dressed up in Batman and Robin costumes and had a minor novelty hit with the 1966 single "Who Stole the Batmobile."  The gimmicky nature of the band probably gained them attention at the height of Batmania, but also limited them to 15 minutes of fame when the novelty wore off.  Two of the members of the band did go on to success, however, as founding members of the R&B band Tower of Power.
