The Muppets

Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem pay tribute to 1977 classic.

Throughout its five-season run, 'The Muppet Show' brought in some of the world's best-loved entertainers as guest stars, including musicians from rock, pop and country.

Attendees at this year's Outside Lands Festival in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park got to witness Muppet history in the making.

We look at our favorite times when classic rockers have appeared with the Muppets.

We look at our favorite interpretations of classic rock songs by the Muppets.

Ever since Bette Midler sang 'One For My Baby (And One More For The Road)' to Johnny Carson' in 1992, it's become a tradition for a concluding late-night television show to be sent off with a musical bang. Last night (Feb. 7), Jimmy Fallon said goodbye to 'Late Night with Jimmy Fallon' in his own way, singing the Band's 'The Weight' with some help from the Muppets.

Courtney Love, who seems to lack that invisible barrier most us have between what we think and what we say, has gone on record with another gem: she claims Disney and the Muppets "raped" Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain's memory by featuring 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' in last year's movie, 'The Muppets.'

Artist Brian Snoddy has offered his rendition of Gonzo, our favorite big blue beaked Muppet, taking over for Motor City Madman Ted Nugent on the cover of his 1978 'Weekend Warriors' album.

The Muppets are the latest celebrities -- they are A-listers in the plush world, mind you --  to appear in a Google TV ad. In their spot, Kermit & Co. hawk Google+ to the strains of 'Under Pressure' by Queen and David Bowie.

The Muppets' fruitful association with classic rock continues. In this viral video, the oft put-upon but always gentlemanly lab assistant know Beaker offers his acoustic and meep–filled rendition of 'Dust in the Wind' by Kansas to an online audience. He certainly puts his own unique stamp on the tune.
