Just walked by the TV where the kid is watching Sesame Street Old School, Vol. 1, when this awesome pickup handclapping jam session came on. I'd completely forgotten about that.
Anyway, now I want to make it into my ringtone.
It's on the third disc, BTW, Season 5, where it's called "Handclapping Number." The Muppet Wiki Episode Guide, calls the segment "Clap Clap Clap."
Buy Sesame Street - Old School, Vol. 1 (1969-1974), currently $27.50 or so on Amazon [amazon]
This is seriously brilliant stuff. The creator of the Elmo's World theme song should be ashamed.
Which iphone ringtone maker do you use?
I don't have an iPhone; I have the iPod Touch. But my SonyEricsson phone can use mp3's for ringtones, so I just rip the youtube file and extract the audio.
