I know that the Sesame Street Alphabet Album was totally pre-recorded, but later lip-sunch for TV sketches. Were all of them made into TV sketches? Or just some? The following from that album I have NOT seen:

The Sound of the Letter A
Oscar's B Sandwich
Four Furry Friends
Ha Ha
Herb's Silly Poem
The Noodle Story
My Favorite Letter
The R Machine
The Tale of Tom Tettertal Tuttertut
The U Lecture
A Very Very Special Letter
Just Because

The rest I have seen, either back when I watched it as a little kid, or, in a few cases, some that I have recently seen for the very first time through Youtube ("What's My Letter?" comes to mind). Do any of those even exist as sketches? Does anyone have them? Any help would be appreciated. I'm making another topic as well for other songs. From other albums.

Wow, a lot of memories you bought to my attention. I recall the "The sound of the letter A" as a sketch shown on TV a long time ago, that was with big Bird and some anything muppet I think. But as for the other songs I"m not too sure, but all in all this was an unbelievable album- great part of my childhood, too bad the tape I had of this album got busted because of too much playing.:frown:

Hi - The only one on your list that I DO remember being shown is "P-My favorite letter," which was sung by some country anything-muppet folk standing outside a house.

Luckily, the tracks from this album are on the "Do the alphabet" CD, which I think is still available.

Thanks a lot, I'll check out the CD...it'll be good to hear those songs once again for ol' times sake. Man, I miss those days.

I still like Bert's "W" song/sketch ("When you hear 'whu, whu whu, whu!'"). He was a crack-up in that one.
