I'd forgotten just how beautiful the jazz score in this program really is, and how it exposed American kids to high quality jazz. I know, it's a TV show, but I figure this was the best subforum to place it.

Watching it now. Anyone have the score? Do you all like it as much as I?

I have it on vinyl, nice music. I may have a few of his other records too, Guaraldi that is.

"Christmastime is Here" would leave me feeling very melancholy afterward, which for a time made me dislike it. It wasn't until I started playing it from a Christmas fakebook I got one year that I started realizing how interesting the changes were that give it it's unique sound.

Great soundtrack. It made me like jazz at the age of 10 or 11, years before I got into jazz, fusion, and progressive music in general. I throw it on at least once around this time of year.

Vince Guaraldi is nothing short of a genius...

Great music from the Vince Guaraldi trio.
