I can't think of where else to post this. Has anyone given the Green Album a listen? It's a lot of different bands collaborating to cover songs from the Muppet Show. If you didn't grow up in the 70's in the U.S. you may not care but here it is anyway. I still get teary when I hear The Rainbow Connection.
