The Muppet Show LP (1977)

[scarecroe]

On Bill Sherman's site (http://vr.ncsa.uiuc.edu/BS/Muppets//albums.html#LP_MUPPET_SHOW) he lists The Muppet Show LP as having 23 tracks. It's easy to pick out the fact that he simply made a mistake and that at track 20, he just accidentally started listing The Muppet Show Fan Club Soundtrack.

My question is, are those 3 tracks (La Vie Aerobique, Frogs and I Love My Elbows) the only songs that were on that LP?

[scarecroe]

....and also, does anyone have a scan of what that album (The Muppet Show Fan Club Soundtrack) looked like?

[Link Hogthrob]

I have never seen the Muppet Show Fan Club Album, but I don't think those songs would have been on it.....

The first one sounds like something that would have been on Miss Piggy's Aerobiques

I don't know about the song Frogs...

I Love My Elbows was a Kermit/Sesame Street song that came out MANY years after the Muppet Show.

I don't know what songs were on the Fan Club album, but I would almost bet a $1 million that those are the wrong tracks.

The Muppet Show Fan Club is a one-sided, blue plastic 45 single. It includes a shortened version of the Muppet Show theme, about three minutes of dialogue about the fan club from a lot of Muppets, then the closing theme.

[Joggy]

That dialogue was quite funny. "Rully, I joined many fanclubs, but this is the first time a fanclub ever joined me, wow." (- Janice)

Im sure i once saw a Muppet Fan Club thing with a picture of alot of Muppets in rows, Was it the fan club record ?

See ya

[FER SURE]

I would die if I could could get an mp3 of that. I could burn it to disk and it would never leave my cd changer again!

Incidentally, this gets me thinking also about the special edition of Pigs In Space that they did for a NASA shuttle wakeup call. You know the one; it's one of the facts on one of the Time-Life DVDs. Does anyone have that and could make an MP3 of it? I'd love to hear it!

[Warrick]

Id love a n MP3 of it aswell please !!

Maybe everyone should donate this kinda music and put it all on a Website available for Download ?

Ive got lots of MP3's, Something like 100 Muppet songs.

See ya

scarecroe & Warrick:

OK, write your e-mail adresses and then I´ll make a mp3 of it later this week I hope! Actually I already have that on a cd, so it shouldn´t take so long for me to do it!

Warrick, I love your idea of a site with music for everyone to download, or else maybe we could do some cd´s with covers and everything with all that rare music??? I´ve been thinking of doing that for a while...!

[Warrick]

So do you wanna get together in a Chat and talk about the possibility of making a Muppet Music Website ?

I think it will be a great resource for Muppet Fans.

And it will be 'Made by the Fans, For the Fans'

As i said ive got over 100 MP3's and then most of the Albums and discs.
And ive got most of the old Records too.

eMail me! (warrick@blueyonder.co.uk)

See ya

[Iggy35]

Yeah but dont forget about the downfall of MY website!
Anyone remember???
The one with the muppet books, video & cd covers, computer games, badges, etc
That got pulled 4 times in a row...and I still think someone high up was behind it.
They have their eye on us,...watch out!
Jeeesh I'm turning into the person I always hated!!!

[Iggy35]

the membership album should be ok, i would have thought tho......its been 25 years.

IGGY35

[Warrick]

Well they have never pulled any of my sites, They have MP3's and Merchandise stuff on them.

See ya

[Animal]

Warrick,

How are we going to meet in a chat, since there´s no chat here at the moment??? Besides that, I´ll meet you in the chat, when it´s available again, or else we have to mail each other...!

*Hans*

[Warrick]

Hey,
Do you have MSN, AOL or Yahoo Messengers ?

Ifnot we will have to mail each other about it !

See ya

[Animal]

Warrick,

No, I don´t have any of those right now, but I will have MSN in a couple of days, so we have to "meet" in there, ok?

*Hans*

[Warrick]

Yeah that great !

Im online now, If you wanna email me !

See ya

[Luke]

I think the trick is not to advertise the sites too much at Muppet Central - i do think there is someone 'up high' shall we say that keeps an eye on what sites are opening.

[Warrick]

Yeah i realised that.

We are gonna try and keep it totally legal and above board...

But i think there are lots of eyes watching from above

see ya

[Chilly Down]

> We are gonna try and keep it totally legal and above board...

I think the key is to avoid things that are currently in release. I can't see them hunting you down for a Fan Club 45 rpm released 20-some years ago. If you start making MP3s from Muppet soundtracks currently available at your local music store -- then I think they might have a problem with that.

For that matter, if it gets too big it might make them nervous regardless. A couple of songs that aren't available here and there is no big deal -- but with 100 songs at a site, that might make Henson nervous.

That's why you can't download any songs from MC Radio.

I'm not trying to throw a dark cloud over everything -- but I know Warrick wants to do this the honest way, so I just thought I'd clarify a few points. And if I can get some of the bugs ironed out in my technology over here, I might just be wanting a copy of that Fan Club MP3 myself! :p

[Warrick]

Thanks for the tips !

See ya

[Thog]

I have a MP3 of the theme which I have never heard before. It's 2:04min and it's kinda like the one from the muppet show LP, but insted of "to introduce this record....blah blah blah" it's says "to introduce Miss Piggy...blah blah blah" I know thats they way I've seen it on sheet music, but I didn't know there was a recording of it. Anyone know what it's from?

[Phillip Chapman]

It's from a UK single featuring an extended theme of "The Muppet Show". You can hear it on Muppet Central Radio.

[Animal]

Warrick,

I now have MSN, so now we can "meet"!
