Steamin' Hot

Steamin' Hot is a 1976 American animated musical fantasy comedy film produced by Rankin/Bass Entertainment for Paramount Pictures. Released in theaters on June 16, 1976, the film combines sequences of both stop motion and hand-drawn animation, and centers on a family band consisting of six members -- John Hillwood, Mako Monster, Bob Blue, Cowboy Don, Jenny Petalstick, and Maggie Moogie. The band travels to the airport for a flight ticket to their first cross-country concert in Australia; during the trip. During the trip, they crash their bus into Washington D.C. and, with the help of a dedicated fan, must stop a criminal who seeks to frame the band with ill intentions.

Steamin' Hot is considered the first incarnation of what would eventually become a successful franchise in the late 1970's, which consists of a series studio albums performed by a virtual band based on the film's main cast, a Saturday morning animated television series that aired on ABC from September 27, 1980 to November 6, 1982, a sequel on June 26, 1987, and a live-action reboot film on June 18, 2004.
