Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
There's more details elsewhere on this board, but:
Joel Grey - lost both Newsflashes (probably in error) and 'Stormy Weather'
Jim Nabors - lost 'Gone with the Wind' and 'Danceros'
Paul Williams - lost 'All of Me'
Charles Aznavour - lost 'Old Fashioned Way'
Vincent Price - lost 'You've Got A Friend'
The loss of 'Old Fashioned Way' is particularly ludicrous considering that Aznavour wrote it himself...
Not in the UK; I don't know about any other countries.
Whats annoys me even more is that Time Life had "Youve Got A Friend" on their releases. IF Time Life could obtain the rights tot he song, how could Disney (one of the biggest companies in the world) not.
I really shouldnt complain, cuz my 4 fave Season1 episodes were uncut:
*Connie Stevens
*Rita Moreno
*Phyllis Diller
*Kaye Ballard.

- the rights holder declined to license the song to Disney
- the rights were either more expensive when Disney looked into it, or else Disney's budget for the release wouldn't cover them
- the rights were not available (or were unaffordable) for all territories that the boxset was to be released in
