Description by OLDIES.com:

One of the most desired soundtracks in the beloved collection of music from the iconic Peanuts animated TV specials, It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is being made available for the first time ever! Featuring music by GRAMMY-winning composer/performer Vince Guaraldi, the CD and digital package offerings include a new introduction from the TV show's executive producer Lee Mendelson and insightful liner notes by Derrick Bang, Peanuts historian and author of Vince Guaraldi at the Piano.

"This is the quintessential Vince Guaraldi for our Peanuts' specials. After scoring our documentary on Charles Schulz, A Boy Named Charlie Brown, Vince composed the music for A Charlie Brown Christmas and our second animated special, Charlie Brown All Stars, following it up with some of his best atmospheric jazz (along with John Scott Trotter) for It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. The perfect accompaniment for: Linus on his quest to see the Great Pumpkin; Charlie Brown's lament for only receiving rocks; and Snoopy's first battle with the Red Baron. Vince's score carries the gang with the autumn leaves, through the scary and cold Halloween night. This music comforts the indomitable faith of Linus, still waiting for his hero since 1966 — forever in our ears, hearts and memories." – Introduction written by Lee Mendelson, Executive Producer of the TV special
