The Muppet Alphabet Album

The Muppet Alphabet Album is a Sesame Street learning album based on the children's television series. It was first released in 1971 by Columbia, then reissued in 1976, and by Golden Music in 1990, and by Sony Wonder in 1996, and by Koch Records in 2008. Sony Wonder and Koch Records's reissues included Elmo singing a version of the song, "ABC-DEF-GHI", and called it "Sing the Alphabet". The album features one song for each letter in the alphabet, performed by a variety of Sesame Street characters. Each of the songs uses a different musical style.

Jim Henson, one of the album's producers, included a short description of the project on the album jacket of the initial release: "The idea is very simple – a little song or skit about each of the twenty-six letters of the alphabet..". A short history of the production process was later posted to a posthumous blog representing his estate.
