Another of those figures that you just assume will always be here. Talented himself, his variety show in the mid 60's was excellent, Not surprisingly the most fan mail came for he and Rowlf.

And if you don't remember, before Kermit or Bert and Ernie or Miss Piggy, there was Rowlf.....Jim Henson's first "star quality" muppet and a star he was on Jimmy's show. The interchanges between the two of them were classic.

Thanks for the songs Jimmy but thanks for the sharing which you did so well.
