An underrated man was DON MUSIC
Composer Don Music was a character on the children's television show Sesame Street.
check him out in a wicked clip |
I didn't know he had a name...the one & only time I saw him was when he was trying to compose the Sesame St jingle, of course Kermit comes along & suggests changes that turned it into "Can you tell me how to get to Yellowstone Park"...& then asks him how to get to Sesame Street...but also I noticed when Don started saying "Never, never, never", the voice seemed very similar to the voice of Junior on Fraggle Rock...yeh, I was a fan of that too, I had HBO when #1 son was little, & that gave me an excuse to watch it with him on Sunday mornings...

I nearly lost the theme of the thread when I saw those boobies bouncing up and down. That av is absolutely hypnotizing!
I love Beaker & Bunsen.
I love Grover AND Gonzo.
I love Oscar & Ernie...but not Bert. (Probably the result of the widespread rumor that Bert is evil.  )
And my favorite Christmas show of all time is "Emmet Otter's Jugband Christmas".

I always like Gobo Fraggle and Oscar the grouch...something about Oscar always being in a bad mood seemed appealing to me...yes I was a strange child.

My kids loved the "Yup Yup" monsters........I can still hear them giggling every time that bit with the telephones would be shown.
Anyone remember the Geeful and the Gonk??
