Big Bird Sings!



Big Bird Sings! is one in a series of character-centered Sesame Streetalbums released in 1974. Although some of the material comes from the earlier Columbia and Warner Brothers albums, some tracks appear here for the first time, including Big Bird reading some of his poems. Later editions of this album remove two tracks, The "J" Poem and Everyone Likes Ice Cream, and replace them with I Just Adore Four and A Really Good Feeling.
This album was changed yet again when it was reissued as part of the 2-LP set Just Friends. See that album's page for details.
The second edition of this album was released on CD for the first time on the 3-disc set Old School: Volume 1, on March 23, 2010, along with The Sesame Street Record and Bert & Ernie Sing-Along.
