Wow! 40...yes it was indeed Toots!! They still record music in NY for the 
show and Will Galison and myself & maybe even Bonfiglio?have done Harmonica 
for the show over the years...it's been a Good run and nice that they use a 
good amount of Harp!

Toots has some COOL Musical Calling Cards:

-Sesame St intro

-Old Spice Whistling Jingle from the 60's

and WHO has not heard this as they rolled their cart up and down the 
supermarket isle:

-da-da-da-da-da-da.......da----------da-da....
-BLUESETTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
