Rob Walsh (b. 1947), full name Robert J. Walsh, is a composer and orchestrator who spent most of the 1980s working on various animated series, notably those produced by Marvel Productions. He worked on Muppet Babies for the first six seasons, composing the opening theme, background score, and occasionally contributing to songs, like "Rocket to the Stars." Walsh also served as composer of background score on the animated Fraggle Rock, as well as the animated segments to Little Muppet Monsters (even by reusing some of his Muppet Babies background music cues in these segments).
Walsh's other animation credits include The Transformers, The Pink Panther specials, several Looney Tunes compilations and specials, and Spider-Man. His live-action film credits include Nightbeast, Young Warriors, and Leprechaun.
Along with Johnny Douglas, Robert J. Walsh was the original composer on the G1 cartoon. He was born on December 4, 1947, in Chicago, Illinois.
He has written music for nearly 50 television shows, including The Seventh Portal, Millennium Man, G.I. Joe Extreme and My Little Pony Tales.
His music for the first season of The Transformers was a mixture of previous compositions used on G.I. Joe, and new work. He did not write the show's famous theme music, but did incorporate the melody into many of his stock background pieces. Walsh composed many additional pieces for the second and third seasons of Transformers.
