Store Categories VINCE GUARALDI It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown / LP NEW COLORED VINYL / Craft 2021
2021 reissue on orange, pumpkin-shaped vinyl!! It‘s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown may be the number two Peanuts holiday special, but it does try harder, thanks largely to Guaraldi and his soundtrack (which inexplicably didn’t get a formal release until 2018). The jazz pianist’s relationship with Charlie Brown and company can actually be traced back to his 1962 track “Cast Your Fate to the Wind” — a Grammy-winning composition in which you can hear the groundwork for “Linus and Lucy” — which caught the attention of producer Lee Mendelson. Mendelson asked Guaraldi to do the music for a Peanuts documentary that never got off the ground, but the partnership was solidified. A Charlie Brown Christmas came first and, of course, gave us classics like “Linus and Lucy” and “Christmastime is Here,” and it was followed a second special called Charlie Brown’s All-Stars! But it wasn’t until Great Pumpkin that Guaraldi solidified what would come to be known as the Peanuts sound.
