Can You Picture That?



The Electric Mayhem with Kermit & Fozzie from the Muppet Movie (1979). Jim Henson as Dr. Teeth & Kermit. Frank Oz as Fozzie. Jerry Nelson as Floyd. Music & Lyrics by Paul Williams and Kenny Ascher.

There are great songs throughout the majority of the early Jim Henson output. At some point in the 80s all of these people seem to have lost their footing & the product becomes boring & irrelevant.
