Unsure if you know this already, but the singers from this Sesame Street clip are The Pointer Sisters, who had been on tour as a gospel group along the East coast, when Herbie Hancock, who was arranging the music, called them in for a single session between shows. He was so impressed with their versatility and improvisational skills that word got out, and eventually they were given a chance to perform material that was more AOR radio-ready.
I did not know. Thank you for sharing. 😁
@dgar @KCDOZ I'm curious as to why they count to 12 of all things.
The comparable show back when I was a kid was "Fem myror är fler än fyra elefanter" and in it they counted to 20, which seems a lot more logical?
Fem myror är fler än fyra elefanter. När elefanten räknar till 20 och det tar extra tid för honom att få fram siffran 14.
