“An Old Fashioned Love Song” was written by Paul Williams in 1971. The song made its muppet debut in season 1, episode 8 of The Muppet Show (1978). The song was performed by Paul Williams alongside two Paul Williams muppets (both voiced by Williams), Jerry the guitar player for the country trio (Jerry Nelson), and the Gogolala Jubilee Jugband which was comprised of Zeke with the banjo (either Richard Hunt or Jerry Nelson, likely Hunt in this case), Jake with the kazoo (Peter Friedman), Eben with the jug (Dave Goelz), Clyde with the trumpet (usually Frank Oz, but according to the person who uploaded this video John Lovelady is puppeteering him here), and Annie (Eren Ozker). The person who uploaded this video said that if you look closely you can briefly see Dave Goelz and John Lovelady with their puppets, I have not been able to catch it though!

Together the group sings about how the way to a woman’s heart is Shakespeare, or more accurately his mispronounced play titles.
