An expanded soundtrack for the Thanksgiving season is reason to do the Snoopy dance. “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” celebrates the 50th anniversary of the “Peanuts” TV special, which first aired in November 1973.
This cover image released by Lee Mendelson Film Productions shows the original soundtrack recording for “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” by Vince Guaraldi. will be released Friday in advance of the 50th anniversary of the Peanuts TV special, which first aired in November 1973. The restored, remixed, remastered album by the late jazz composer and keyboardist Vince Guaraldi features 21 tracks, nearly half of which have not been previously released.
Guaraldi is accompanied by Seward McCain on electric bass, Mike Clark on drums, Tom Harrell on trumpet and Chuck Bennett on trombone, and the tunes are explored by the ensemble in various configurations, including overdubs.
There are new versions of the familiar tunes “Thanksgiving Theme” and “Linus and Lucy,” as well as a brief jam involving only Guaraldi and Clark. Five cuts titled “Thanksgiving Interlude” are included, among them a version used in the show that was the 17th and final take. Joyful, youthful melodies are a common thread, as are skittering, deceptively funky grooves, which seem both unpredictable and natural, like the rhythms of a playground.
