Puppet?[]
I never got around to buying the Elmo and the Orchestra CD, and now wish I had, as it seems to be out of print. But can anyone tell me where that picture comes from? As far as I knew, Birdseed was an audio only character. Was this a poser or mockup done for the CD booklet, or something else? --Andrew, Aleal 19:19, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
- I think I just answered my own question, as the album cover shows Birdseed. Does anyone who have the album know if any of the other bird characters, outside of the musicians shown, had accompanying images? --Andrew, Aleal 19:23, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
- There's a larger photo of the birds on the clothesline in the booklet, but that's it. -- Scott Scarecroe 19:35, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
- As for Leonard, it's probably just a bird poser they slapped eyebrows on to make him look like Bernstein. -- Scott Scarecroe 19:44, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, so I'm wondering whether he should count as a "Muppet Character" if he's just a poser. On the other hand, since an actual puppet, even a poser, was mocked up, as opposed to Baby Ray Franklin, I'd *probably* give him the benefit of the doubt, but not any other characters from the album if/as they get added. But I'm not sure, especially since now we have another place to put him (I just created an Audio Characters category.) --Andrew, Aleal 20:15, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
