Sesame Street - Fairy Alphabet


 
   

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!

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.

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.

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 remember always being utterly captivated by this. Well, up until the end when I would yell at the TV, "'Zed', not 'zee'!" :-D I had no concept of borders at the time, so I didn't really realize that they pronounce Z differently in the US.Of course, it's thanks the PBS that I know more Spanish than I do French. LOL.
