Linus and Lucy.

Pigpen should have gone solo and released some avant crazy stuff.

I can't be 100% sure, but I'm very convinced that Guaraldi quotes or "borrows" from the 1941 jazz standard "I Hear a Rhapsody" somewhere on this album, most likely his version of "O Tannenbaum".

I first heard "I Hear a Rhapsody" through the Chick Corea album Trio Music Live in Europe (1986) and found myself instantly reminded of Guaraldi's soundtrack.

Linus and Lucy is the quintessential Charlie Brown track.

I do like that Camel (not that I endorse smoking kids Wink ) but I actually got confused a little.

The songs are by a group called The Royal Guardsmen, who had a song called "It's Sopwith Camel Time" amongst their Snoopy related material.


Confusion is pretty much a permenant state for me.

Christmas Time Is Here (with vocals).  Is as much a Christmas song as any of the other Christmas song  standards.

For christmas, I am going to make this poll. I am going to pick What Child Is This, because I feel like Guaraldi's version because of how emotional it sounds. That version really gets me thinking. Pick two if you like.
