Makes you wonder what those muppets get into backstage. I've actually been mp3'ing my favorite Bob-n-Ray radio progs lately, so maybe I should try grabbing some of the best Sesame Street. One more record I forgot to mention that is great for scratching is "The Count Counts", which has him dj'ing/personality on a radio station doing the "countdown" top hits and reading a lot of numbers. Well, it goes without saying that you can do a lot of those James Brown "1.. 2... 3... 4..(hit it!)" scratching tricks off this record, but you get "bah hahh hahhh ahhhh" instead of JB's "ungh" shouts...
