Sesame street song

[PetahPetah]

Not the open theme, but Groovin on the Sunshine, w Bob Mcgrath, 1970.  I can't find who plays organ.  Stuff says who wrote it, w Three Ring Circus.  Anyone help? Ty

Sounds like you are referring to the first one that I remember:  I think it stated with "Sunny Day..." and had the kids and Barkley the Dog running with the kids   Not sure who played the organ though, but those were the days

[I think it may be Joe Raposo as it says here:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Raposo]. It stands to reason that since he composed the theme song and also several others for the series, he may be the one playing the organ.......Not sure, but it is a good guess

Rolf?

 

From what I could find, it appears that they Session Musicians. So likely only the original copies have the musicians listed.

Just as a fun fact:  Can anyone identify the singers here in this Sesame Street Counting Song Compilation?  You'd be surprised!

No it's not the tv show opening sunny day.  " Grooving on the sunshine.  Soaking up the music! (Something about) the flowers. Warming up on love and happiness!"
