| The Muppet Show 25th Anniversary Collection : 3 of 5 | |

 I saw this CD on Amazon as one of their recommendations based on my tastes (they know me so well), so I thought I would try it out, especially now since the Muppets are part of Disney! This is an excellent collection - the first half of the CD is like an episode of the Muppet Show, complete with opening and closing music, Fozzie comedy numbers, songs by Miss Piggy and Gonzo, and even a tap dance by Kermit (complete with the heckling old men!). The second half is a chronological set of music from the Muppet movies, starting with Rainbow Connection (of course), and finishing up with Gonzo's song from Muppets from Space. I wasn't too familiar with the material from the movies (I need to rent them!), so the second half wasn't as much fun for me as the first. My main peeve is that the opening theme song is a shortened version, even though the liner notes claim it's the original (it's definitely not, because it's missing the bridge to introduce the guest star!). All in all, a really fun way to enjoy the Muppets, and now I want to watch the movies and the show again.
