Default Dance Your Cares Away!

In celebration of the new deluxe limited edition Fraggle Rock LPs I've decided to run a marathon of my favorite Henson records, (with a few other child-of-the-80s favorites for good measure). I've about 60 Muppet/Sesame records (thank you early 2000s Goodwill and VOA!) and will spin a few favorites this eve.

Featured albums will include:

The original Fraggle Rock LP. (Sorry... no fancy splattered colors here.)



The Muppet Movie (alternate UK Cover)



Labyrinth



The Muppet Show Vols I and II ("The Great Gonzo Eats A Rubber Tyre To The Flight Of The Bumble Bee" is a classic.)



The Great Muppet Caper



The Dark Crystal



One of the rarer Sesame LPs - This Roosevelt Franklin album was hot for weird funky soul samples in the early 2000s. I miss the world's first purple muppet.



The Soundtrack to Legend by Tangerine Dream



And while I'm in the spirit of nostalgic 80s children's films, I'll have to spin these as well...

An American Tail - the first film I saw in theaters.



And one of my all-time favorites - the wonderfully dark adventure story, The Secret of NIMH!



Not too much to say about these... you likely already know them well. Perhaps collecting these has been a bit of a reclamation of my childhood, but nostalgia aside, these were wonderfully enjoyable films.
