From 1969, musician Michael Cooney and his trusty banjo (and jaw harp) visit our friends on "Sesame Street", the best darn kids show ever! Episode 33, first aired on Christmas Eve (December 24, 1969); mucho thanks to the always rockin' @Sesame Maniac. Let's see what this musical present holds, shall we? CLICK ON SHOW MORE FOR INFO AND LINKS!
Michael contributes a LOT of music to this one. Bunch of fun for the kids as he engages them in the songs (some not quite as enthusiastically as others, which is hilarious to me) and, frankly, a nice bit of eye candy for the ladies or lads out there (I think he's cute as a bug's ear myself). I've held back on uploading this one as I thought it had TOO much music. Ironically, it now seems to have the perfect amount. A sweet and tuneful gift from the past.
SONGS: "Buffalo Gals", "Apple Picker's Reel", "Clean-O", "Bear Hunt", "Candy Man", "Turkey in the Straw", "Baby-Rocking Medley", "Close Your Eyes and Point Your Finger", and "Simple Gifts".
Other new stuff includes: Ernie's Ice Cube Collection; Ernie's Speedy Clean-Up; Kermit's E/F Lecture w/Beautiful Day Monster; Big Bird, Gordon, and Bob and the Lowercase I (surreal!); Gordon reads "Where Are the Mothers?" by Dorothy Marino; Buddy and Jim struggle with buttons; Gordon explains how trash can lids are recycled, then invites us to visit The Scrapyard (live-action film of a car being lifted by a magnetic scrapyard baler and crushed in a compacter).
NEW CARTOON: Speech Balloon: I for Ice Cream.
MUPPET REPEAT: Ernie leads the cast in "Everybody Wash".
OTHER REPEATS: Solomon Grundy; Body Parts Hurt Jump Rope Rhyme; I for Impolite (Gary Owens); Jazz #2; Counting and Erasing; Speech Balloon: C for Cat (impostor) and F for Fly; C for Cat (Bob Arbogast; door opens on a lion); Two Song (Song of Two); Three Song (Song of Three); Head To Toe Puzzle; Water (live-action film).
