rockpile Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I remember watching him on his C&W variety show with my grandparents. He used to joke and sing at the piano with this furry puppet called a Muppet named Ralph the dog, voiced by an off camera Jim Henson. Man, that was a LONG time ago.

Lurker Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 and more early Jimmy Dean /Muppet clips: RIP Jimmy (man, I feel old watching some of those YouTubes)....
