We’ve all grown up with the Peanuts Gang, and the music is often kids first introduction to jazz. And behind the music is the Vince Guaraldi Trio! We were sent a copy of the recently released Peanuts Greatest Hits on CD, and it brings back all of the memories watching the Peanuts specials growing up.
The Peanuts Greatest Hits includes the songs that you and your family will recognize from the shows, as well as Little Birdie sung by Vince Guaraldi himself. Inside you will find liner notes from Derrick Bang, PEANUTS historian and author of 2012’s Vince Guaraldi at the Piano. The CD instantly takes us back to our favorite Peanuts moments, and is a great addition to any Peanuts collection.
Tracks included on the CD:
- Linus and Lucy
- Charlie Brown Theme
- Baseball Theme
- Oh, Good Grief
- Happiness Is
- Little Birdie
- Great Pumpkin Waltz
- Thanksgiving Theme
- Christmas Is Coming
- Christmas Time Is Here (instrumental)
- Skating
- Christmas Time Is Here (vocal)
