Ep. 21: Vince Guaraldi Trio - A Charlie Brown Christmas
Manage episode 390761524 series 3495067
Ho-ho-holy good grief, we have a truly special one this week!
Hilary and Cody unwrap the story behind a legendary holiday album - A Charlie Brown Christmas.
Ever wonder who those kids are on the recording? They're just kids, of course! Vince Guaraldi and Lee Mendelson understood the necessity for authenticity. This soundtrack has transcended beyond just the music to a classic television special; many would put this as the definitive soundtrack to their holiday season.
Full of quiet reflection, this record still finds space to swing. The Vince Guaraldi Trio has been the background music to many special holiday moments for over 50 years.
To quote a great blanket-toter: "And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!"
