about

I was 10 years old and obsessed with Peanuts when “A Charlie Brown Christmas” first aired in 1965. Even at that age, I sensed something wholly unique and magical in its music and would later devour everything by its composer Vince Guaraldi. For my 1995 “Christmas Collection” I decided to splurge and do all 3 iconic tunes from the TV special: “Christmas Time is Here,” “Christmas is Coming” and “Skating.” It required two 16-string Gibson harp guitars to adequately capture Vince’s two hands at the piano along with his bassist. I borrowed a friend’s snare and cymbals and did the percussion myself. 56 years later, this is still my favorite Christmas music.
