Muppet Maestros: The Beatles

Hilarie Mukavitz - A lot of the artists featured in this series have been lesser known. You might have heard of their work, but odds are you hadn't heard of them. I'm guessing unless you're reading this blog from Planet Koozebane, you've heard of the Beatles. What you may not know is while the Muppets did many covers and parodies of Beatles songs, the Beatles themselves, one in particular, were also fans of the Muppets.
