Pointer Sisters Performances

[Cookie fan]

Although these are some of my earliest recollections of Sesame Street, I could remember the Pointer Sisters in HUGE afros, fully dressed in typical 70's styles singing about the alphabet. I remember the last the words to that song were: " A-B-C...and X-Y-Z...(and the sister with the deepest voice would croon)..and M-O-P spells mop, YEAH!!!!

There was another song they did, is it "Yes you can"? It was a very good song. I also remember they did a remake of the alphabet song sometime later. Anyone remember these performances?

They sound really familer to me.

It would make sense considering that they did the music for the classic 'Pinball Number Count' segment.

The 1st song you mentioned was actually called Yess We Can Can which was their very 1st single release in 1973. I don't know if that clip of them performing it was from the same year though it probably was.
