The Muppet Musicians of Bremen, part of the Tales from Muppetland series, was syndicated in 1972.
In this one-hour musical special, Kermit the Frog narrates the story of the Muppet Musicians of Bremen.
Leroy the Donkey, T.R. the Rooster, Rover Joe the Hound Dog and Catgut escape the clutches of their cruel human owners, form a band and go on the road, playing their own distinctive brand of Louisiana Bayou music.
While their owners -- a gang of robbers named Mordecai Sledge, Farmer Lardpork, Mean Floyd and Caleb Siles -- are hiding out in a cabin in the Bayou to divide their loot, the fugitive animals mistake the cabin for lodgings where they can play their music in exchange for room and board. The superstitious gang members are spooked out of their lair by the sound of mysterious music on a night with a full moon.
