Original Playbill Comments: "Most people go through three distinct growing stages concerning Mister Rogers. When you're a child, naturally you appreciate his calm tones and how he never talks down to you and always treats you as if you were an equal. Later, as a cynical teen/adult, you come to view these same qualities as the necessary components of any pedophile. That's a shame.Only when you come full circle with children of your own do you realize how Mr. Rogers is like valium for kids. He has a positive soothing effect on them AND adults who share in this belief. Recently, I purchased a worn thrift store copy of his You Are Special album which has a mylar mirror on the cover to show you that yes you are indeed special, (a device which Uriah Heep chose to copy and exploit to lessened effect with their sinister Look At Yourself LP two years later). I've been driving around with a cassette copy of this record and it has eased my troubled mind. I'm glad to count Mister Rogers as a musical influence and a special friend. That's not forgetting you, of course, my other special friend. Much love, Vic Masters."
