As a diehard Muppet fan, I've found that (until recently) Muppet music is extremely hard to come by, so I acquired most of the Sesame Street catalogue. This one, by far, has to be one of my favorites. The Count always got these wonderful songs that were educational and evoked Old World charm. It was hard to believe that he was almost shelved because the writers of "Sesame Street" initially disliked his character. However, the incredible Jerry Nelson made the character work and it shows here. Highlights include "The Song Of The Count" (I could imagine Jerry having a phenomenal time in that recording session), "The First Day Of School", "One Potato", "Count Up To Nine", and the hilarious "My Fair Lady" send-up, "I Could Have Counted All Night", with a rare "Sesame Street" appearance by "Muppet Show" regular Louise Gold. All in all, it adds up to von, von terrific Sesame Street CD! Ah ha ha ha ha, I love it! *thunder and lightning*

I love the Count. He was my favorite growing up and I can see my little 22 month old girl catching the count craze. Batty Bat is the best. My little girl gets so tickled at me doing the dance. Wonderful Cd.

5.0 out of 5 stars How do I love Sesame Street? Let me Count the ways..., June 12, 2000

As always, Sesame Street hits yet another home run with The Count's Countdown. With old favorites that bring back happy childhood memories, this cassette also has recent hits, that only Sesame Street can produce, that appeal to children and adults alike. For example, "Little Miss Count Along" has a SpinDoctors feel. ;o)I use this in my Kindergarden math class-- the kids love it and so do I!
