Vince Guaraldi, and "Charlie Brown Blues" (Recording)

[Reader Note: MEH 0910 is a reader at the blog of my longtime VDARE colleague, Steve Sailer. A few months ago, I praised the music of Vince Guaraldi, and since then he has dug up material on andf by Guaraldi for me. Thanks, MEH!]

Vince Guaraldi was the secret star of the Peanuts tv specials. He composed the music for all of them. After Guaraldi died of a massive coronary in Menlo Park, California on February 6, 1976, at the mere age of 47, CBS broadcast re-runs of his Peanuts specials, but produced no full-length, new ones (as opposed to shorts, using parts of his old work as "stock music"). Vince Guaraldi was irreplaceable.]

  1. You just can't get enough of Vince Guaraldi.Only in the 60s,with all the instrumental hits that played throughout radioland,could such an abundance of great music have been created.
