A Charlie Brown Christmas: The Original Sound Track Recording Of The CBS Television Special [Soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The first time you listen to this disc you will undoubtedly be transported directly back to your childhood. Charles Schulz's Peanuts characters will go toe-tapping and funky-dancing through your mind's eye. Play it a few more times, though (ignoring the dialogue snippets, if you can), and you will begin to truly revel in Guaraldi's wonderful, humorous, deep piano playing. You'll hear why he's such an influence on new age ivory tickler George Winston, but you'll also realize that Winston's holiday music never quite sparkles with the underlying passion, and humor, that twinkles in these grooves. Buy it for the nostalgia--keep it because it will remain one of the most enchanting albums in your holiday collection. --Michael Ruby

I recently purchased this CD and I was blown away by it. I am a big fan of Vince Guaraldi and his music always makes me feel great. The sound on the CD is great (no distortion at all). I would whole heartily recommend this CD to anyone who enjoys light Jazz!

5 out of 5 stars GREAT SELLER.......2007-02-07

5 out of 5 stars Excellent! A must have!.......2007-01-29

This compilation of Peanuts tunes by the Vince Guaraldi Trio is outstanding. Everytime I play this, I can see all the Peanuts characters in my mind. It is fun to listen to at anytime of the year, and really brings back memories of my youth and watching Charlie Brown during the holidays. Guaraldi and company show their expert musicianship skills on these snazzy jazzy tunes.The holiday season isn't complete without this collection!

5 out of 5 stars A Charlie Brown Christmas.......2007-01-27

The perfect background music for the Christmas season. It has a quality that brings back the memory of the joy of Christmas times past. I can play it multiple times and still want to hear it again.
