Sinbad the Sailor, sailing the Bounding Main* - With Salty the Parrot on his shoulder, He'll come home again. So shiver me timbers, hoist the sail, And take* the ship, we're off Over the bounding main! Sinbad the Sailor, a special belt has he; Whenever he gets in trouble, It's got magic, you will see. So shiver me timbers, he will be As strong as a hurricane, Over the Bounding Main! (Shiver me timbers, hoist the sail, And take* the ship, we're off!)
That's the original version of Sinbad,Jr. from 1963, which has a different theme and was done by Sam Singer. In 1965, Hanna Barbera redid these short cartoons, with another theme by Hoyt Curtin plus "Johnny Quest"s Tim Mathieson as the voice as the title character and Mel Blanc (the voice of Bugs Bunny and Barney Rubble) as the voice of Salty the Parrot.
Just a repackaging of Popeye with strength derived from a magic belt instead of spinach. I seem to remember the villain was called Blubbo which was somewhat reminiscent of Bluto.
always thought of this blasted cartoon whenever i had to tighten my belt when it was loose (LOL)thanks Fgrandinetti for the memories , havent seen this cartoon in 40 yrs
The sound effects and some of the background music remind me of the mid to late 1960s Gumbys (the "flying effects" used here are Gumby's gal pal mermaid Goo's)--and even the skipping flute "Gumby theme" would be used in some like "Wind Geni".1:48 W.C.Fields or Joe E.Brown impression(?).
Sinbad seems very effeminate, here. It really is not too much of a stretch to imagine Sinbad as a female. What if they did a live action feature film adaptation of the cartoon with...Mila Kunis in the role?
