There IS an Addams Family album, featuring music from the show. Pretty rare today, and I don't think it was ever released on CD.
I had the immense pleasure of interviewing Vic Mizzy by phone several years ago. He was promoting the release of his first album of original pop tunes as recorded by himself. Seventy plus years old, the gentleman was sharp as a tack and immensely witty, as well as opinionated. He shared many stories about his career- including one about the recording of The Addams Family Theme. The studio didn't want to pay for any extra musicians or singers for the session, so he plays the harpsicord himself, and it's his voice overdubbed several times, singing the words- as well as the finger snaps.
