S2E9 - He's More Muppet Than Thou - Paul Williams


Listen Later

This week's guest star is the diminutive songwriter and actor Paul Williams who made a name for himself writing songs for the likes of David Bowie, Helen Reddy, the Carpenters and Three Dog Night. Doug discusses the change in who could be a frontman that was brought about by the rock n' roll revolution, and how the same trend could be seen in Hollywood. Plus, I relive the nightmare of music cue sheets and we talk about technological utopianism and the debut of a new character…Dr. Bunson Honeydew.

Next Week: French crooner Charles Aznavour

The Muppet Show - The Walt Disney Company
