Yes, Virginia, there was a Sesame Street before the Age of Elmo. This 1993 collection highlights the role of music in the long-running series from Children's Television Workshop, and reminds us that such Jim Henson creations as Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, Cookie Monster, and Ernie and Bert were once part of a true ensemble of Muppet superstars. Nothing against Elmo, of course: kids adore him and he makes enough appearances in this anthology (including the show-stopping "Happy Tappin' with Elmo") to keep today's tykes happy. Also included is Ernie's classic "Rubber Duckie" (really, who doesn't know the words to that?), Oscar's anthemic "I Love Trash," you-know-who's "C Is for Cookie," and Big Bird's Big Finale, a rendition of "Sing" that includes the entire cast. There are 27 tunes in all, and they don't all involve singing puppets: Ladysmith Black Mambazo turns up for one track, and the "Sesame Street Jam Session" includes some actual playing of instruments. --Tom Keogh

 THE BEST!! December 15, 2008
I purchased this DVD for our son's 1st birthday, he adores it! Not only that, my husband, sister and I enjoy it too! A lot of the skits, we remember from when we were kids, it's great!! I am not a big fan of the new children's shows out today, maybe because I am too "old school", so I wanted my son to see and appreciate something from my era. The newer Sesame Street shows are good too, but I remembered how much I enjoyed it as a kid growing up and wanted to share that. The dvd is very multi-cultural, humorous and entertaining. He's even started singing the "la la la la" part and Oscar the Grouches "I Love Trash" songs, in his own way!! I plan to buy this for a few more kids for Christmas!
Kids love this video October 28, 2008
This is a great video for kids ages 1 year and up. My 15 month old loves the music and characters and my 2 1/2 year old is still entertained. There is lots of music. We own many of the Sesame Street/Elmo's World DVD's and this one is one of their favorites.
The only movie my twins will watch in the car! September 8, 2008
My 15 month old twins have loved this movie ever since they started watching it about 5 months ago. This is the only movie that will keep their attention in the car and I have yet to find another that is as entertaining and captivating as this!
a piece of history July 1, 2008
I purchased this video for my nephew after his first birthday. Neither of us can get enough of it and I can't tell who is more excited when I'm babysitting to watch this video. The final song, a unique version of "Sing" with Ladysmith Black Mambazo is so sweet it nearly makes me cry every time.
 Very disappointing!!! June 8, 2008

Be warned! Many of the classic Sesame Street songs listed on the back are only short clips spliced together. Argh!!! We bought this for classics like "Rubber Duckie" and "Put Down the Duckie," expecting to get the full songs that appear on other Sesame Street video compilations. The filler in between is a lot of cheesy 80's music that is too erratic and choppy for younger viewers.
