Was this the first solo interview Frank did? I think I seen another one somewhere where Frank performs only the voices of Cookie and Grover. Amazing rare footage, thank you for sharing.

I posted a thread about this, which will probably be deleted soon. Whoops.
I can't get over how the audience goes bonkers for Cookie Monster, and is so quiet when Frank is speaking about his puppeteering experiences. I don't know if that audience is being respectful or not by being so silent. Are they really intrigued or bored? I, for one, can't tell. But I do like how the host actually feeds Cookie some treats. Hopefully he didn't have real cookies or that would have left marks on the puppet.
