Re: Jim Henson was a Who fan



Who do you think "Animal" was modeled after, anyway?  : )

I also recall seeing a book on the development of the Muppets for the Muppet
show (as opposed to Sesame Street) where preliminary sketches of Janis, the
bass player in the band was shown with her glasses being labelled "Jorma type
glasses" in the sketch.  As in Jorma Kaukonen, from the Jefferson
Airplane/Hot Tuna Fame.  Shows that Henson & Crew definitely were keyed into
the music angle.
