Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
Some bad news today, as we learn of the passing of original Generation One The Transformers animated series score composer Robert J Walsh. The news was given by Varese Sarabande Records, on Twitter, who produced some of his albums - namely, Young Warriors and Revenge of the Ninja.

Walsh also worked on fellow animated series Inhumanoids, Action Force, plus Muppet Babies, Daffy Duck's Movie, and more. The thoughts and condolences of Seibertron.com are with his family and loved ones.

We have some sad news to report. Composer #RobertJWalsh has passed away. We worked with him on two great albums, #RevengeOfTheNinja and #YoungWarriors. Our thoughts are with his family and the many fans he had all over the world.

I received the remastered G1 score on the red and blue vinyl and have been enjoying it so much. He put that classic touch of whimsy and wonder in that makes every track. Truly a great loss. :(

My favorite Hasbro-based cartoons, AND my all-time favorite Saturday morning cartoon were all scored by this fellow? Not that surprising since they were all Marvel Productions...but something that never clicked until the announcement of his passing. The score to 60% of my childhood just went silent.

May he rest in peace, and may we keep hearing all his work forever, somehow.
