speaking of charlie brown

i guess it's pretty obvious from the title of this morning's entry that i'm a fan of a charlie brown christmas. well, truth be told, it happens to be my favorite christmas special of all time.

this year is the 50th anniversary of the first telecast of this christmas classic. it's kind of cool to be the same age as your favorite christmas show.

anyway, one of the aspects that makes a charlie brown christmas so special is the wonderful soundtrack filled with the music of jazz impresario vince guaraldi. here's two of the most popular songs from it, and for those of you in the u.s., i defy you to listen to these songs and not think about your christmas as a child. i hope the memories are good ones that bring at least a little bit of joy to your heart.

oh, by the way, a charlie brown christmas has a repeat airing on december 24, so check your local listings for channels and times.

christmas time is here
