Susan Sings Songs from Sesame Street is an album of songs performed by Loretta Long, who plays Susan on Sesame Street. Joe Raposo, in addition to some of his songs being used, was producer and arranger on the album. The musicians were from the NBC orchestra. The children's chorus was performed by the Lois Winter child singers[1] (who sang the show's theme song and on the first two official Sesame Street albums).
This album reached #86 on Billboard's Top LPs chart in 1970. It was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Recording for Children, but lost to The Sesame Street Book & Record.
