James Earl Jones recites the alphabet
This is a really old clip of James Earl Jones reciting the alphabet on Sesame Street. Was Sesame Street shown in black and white? How could you tell that Big Bird was yellow? Anyway, I found this clip to be pretty neat. My baby is a bit too young for TV, but when he is older I definitely want Sesame Street to be a show he watches. I loved it when I was growing up. I did not recognize celebrities at the time, but I think it’s great that they still go on the show today. Back to this clip. James Earl Jones is quite young . He has that same unmistakeable voice. It takes him about a minute and a half to get through the entire alphabet. There are long pauses between each letter, and he makes some pretty funny faces. Enjoy!
