Robert J. Walsh was one of the original composers for the Generation 1 cartoon. 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.
Walsh was not credited for his work on The Transformers during the show's first two seasons, with only his fellow composer Johnny Douglas's name being listed in the show's closing credits. The pair's music for the first season of the show was a mixture of Walsh's previous compositions used on G.I. Joe, and new work that often incorporated the melody of the series theme music, despite neither of the pair writing that tune. Walsh's name was finally added to the credits of the show with the third season, for which he composed many new synthesiser tracks that drew on the score of The Transformers: The Movie.
