Jim Henson originally performed Joe Raposo’s “being Green” as Kermit the Frog. It was later covered by many performers, including Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra, and Van Morrison, among others. But none of them (except Kermit) was actually green. So, after watching the “Wicked” movie I got to thinking… why didn’t Elphaba sing it? She actually is… green.

Roy Orbison and Joe Melson wrote “Blue Bayou” in 1961. It was a hit for Orbison in 1963, and a top 5 hit for Linda Ronstadt in 1977. I thought it was virtually begging for a harp part, so I gave it a try, with with the musicians on a skiff, and not to mention the Dannettes in the row boat… probably best not to mention them...

Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher’s “Rainbow Connection was made famous by Kermit The Frog in the 1979 “Muppet Movie”. A favorite of mine, I like to close live performances with the song. Some day we’ll find it.. oh wait a minute, what’s that electrical box?!
