“Sesame Street” Turns 40

Four decades ago today, on Nov. 10, 1969, “Sesame Street” debuted on public television. As an original viewer, I can safely say that I probably learned to read a little faster, learned to count a little better, discovered music a little earlier and had my initial world view shaped a little broader by this show. Happy birthday, Muppet friends — your felt never looked fuzzier.
Check out this extended performance of “Superstition” that Stevie Wonder played on the “Street” in April 1973. It might just be the best thing you’ll watch all week.
