Elmo debuted in 1979?

Wow, to my understanding, he didn't come until the late 80's.

WEll sort of. Elmo started out as an anything muppet and it was in the mid 80s he became what he is now.

I assume then that the 80's period was when Kevin Clash took over as Elmo.

was there any difference in voice between that Elmo and the Brian Meehl Elmo?
