I would think that just for the fact that these are from Sesame Street would make them all big collectors items. Must be quite rare I would think.

However, the album itself is very common- there are about 4 or 5 copies at my local record shop. lol

But could it possibly be as good as Disco Mickey Mouse (which I grew up on--even though I was a child of the mid 80s--the Mousetrap is still a fave of mine)

"C is for Cookie" was Larry Levans first remix committed to vinyl, collectible for that fact as well.

The picture cover 12" is a re-issue.

....and though I have the Mickey Mouse Disco and Sesame Street Fever LP's in my collection (for use as pure torture devices to unsuspecting listeners), I'll have to agree with Bob and guesstimate that a 12" disco single (based on the Sesame Street Fever LP) would have to be fairly rare.

For an informal poll, Anyone have it in their private collections ??? (it's the photo above the "1978" date in my original post)

I wish I did.

I still have the album and the Mickey Mouse Disco albums on vinyl. Never knew that the SS had any 12" versions.

I have the original 12" (more for the sake of it being Larrys 1st mix) and also the re-issue. The Pinball song on that is by the Pointer Sisters.

I have the original 12", only for the Larry Levan factor.

oh, come now, you closet Cookie Monster freaks ...... you know the "Larry Levan connection" to that particular 12" is just a sham cover story to hide your unhealthy fascination with all things Sesame Street

Glad to know a couple of you (at the very least) have added that title to your collections
