Jim Henson's Muppets (Ed Sullivan calls him Jim Newsome) mimes to a cool garage tune.

Just found out the track is The Bruthers "Rock It To Me" , it doesn't appear on the Sundazed comp.

It's mentioned in the Bruthers' CD liner notes...so I've wondered whether there was a licensing issue...

Yeah...and the cast of Full House was full of comic geniuses, too. I hear you.

I like anything with puppets, stop-motion, claymation, super-marionation, it's all good! :sunny:

That Ed Sullivan puppet isn't too lifelike though...

At the very least it is a creative piece of performance art set to a great musical backdrop...

Watching puppet shows always gives me the munchies...

This was an early proto-cookie-eater used to sell cheesy snacks in Canada. There was an entire line in fact...
