Sesame Street - Fairy Alphabet
Uploaded by: TinyDancer500
Video Description:
Beautiful alphabet vignette from Sesame Street circa the late '70s. Better known as "Madrigal Alphabet", the music is by Donald Byrd and the animation is by Jeff Hale, also known for the Pinball Number Count, The Typewriter Guy, and the Ringmaster series, according to MuppetWiki. A gift from my site, The Sesame Street Lyrics Archive, enjoy!

| It's funny, I was born in 1983 but I did not know that so many of my favorite cartoons and clips were actually made in the 70's, I thought they were all brand new when I first saw them...Everyday the world is seen with the fresh eyes of the next generation I guess :). If only SS would understand this more today and play some of the older timeless cartoons like this one again :). |

| I used to think that these older cartoons when I watched them in the early-mid '80s. Now I watch sesame street again with a child I babysit and I do see old cartoons like "The Ladybug picnic" and skits with Kermit the frog. Don't worry...they do still play the classic stuff. |

| I've noticed that the audio gets out of sync with the animation starting at the transition from G to H, and by the end of the video its almost a full letter behind. If someone can find a synchronized version, or if Tiny Dancer could review and synchronize the posting, it would be greatly appreciated. |

| Replied via email, posting relevant info here. Full, clean, spam-free versions of my vids are on my site (see my channel page for the link), the uploads here don't always work. I might try opening a new account just for reloads as I don't want to lose all the data this has accumulated. |

| I remember this one well, the background music seemed powerful and majestic to me as a kid. Here's a crazy thought - This music probably wouldn't sound too out of place in a Led Zeppelin song. |

| This is fantastic! I think this video should get tons of credit. It taught the alphabet in an interesting way. Sesame street never was boring. It was always special and unique. I look at it now and wish it was back to the classic stuff like this. |
