Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
While Vince Guaraldi's piano playing and composing have had a big influence on George Winston's work, there is little sense of direct imitation in this affecting tribute to the man who composed the memorable music for the television specials based on cartoonist Charles M. Schultz's Peanuts characters. Winston's solo piano style is fuller and more reflective than Guaraldi's, a hearty blend of powerful chords and subdued rhythms. It seems to embrace Guaraldi's tunes, both the Peanuts songs, like the title tune and "You're in Love, Charlie Brown," and Guaraldi's other music, like "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" and "Monterey," which seems to blend somber tones with an almost luminous quality. The warmth, wit, and whimsy here evoke memories of the best work of Guaraldi and Schultz. --Adam Rains

A must have for any music collector (of any flavor). Great original composer and a superb execution by Winston.

If you are a fan of the late Vince Guaraldi, the classic Peanuts cartoon strip and Charlie Brown specials, or a fan of George Winston, I recommend this CD to you.

It's obvious that George Winston has the greatest respect for Vince Guaraldi as seen in the liner notes. Thus, I don't think there's anybody better to do a tribute to Guaraldi than Mr. Winston. Ok, so Winston improvises a little bit (like on "Peppermint Patty" and the closing track) but isn't that found on all tribute albums? When I 1st heard "Cast Your Fate to the Wind", I thought it had a Charlie Brown special feel to it. Now I know why! Other pieces that I like are the brief and simple "Eight Five Five" (you know Winston was a fan if he picked this piece up!), the classic "Linus and Lucy", "Skating", "Great Pumpkin Waltz", the Latino ...

How can anything really compare with the original?
Get Vince's recording for the fullest Jazz and multi-instrument effect.

Wonderful, lovely, sentimental, nostalgic. The music here, all presented without any other interpretation besides the original composers piano and the music that was meant to be heard, is perfect. Take a trip down memory lane and enjoy this masterpiece of memories.

My daughter wanted to use "Linus and Lucy" for her recessional at her wedding and we could not find it any where... This was the perfect recording. And it was quite a surprise to all the guests.
