Your alternative jazz soundtrack for election season. Premier release of Vince Guaraldi's soundtrack for "You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown" (1972)
Newly re-discovered in our vaults, the original recording sessions for Vince Guaraldi's soundtrack for "You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown" now remastered for audiophiles and Peanutsr fans and election lovers everywhere. All versions of this release include the original 15 tracks of cues from the special - with extended performances available for the first time ever - plus 10 extra bonus tracks never before heard since their recording in 1972.
Guaraldi brought Dixieland jazz, his classic favourites, and even his voice (for the first time in Peanutsr) to the soundtrack that provides the score for Linus's campaign for student body president. Some highlights include: the complete (over five minute) "Joe Cool" where Guaraldi sings about one of Snoopy's most famous alter egos; multiple versions of "Incumbent Waltz" written for the special; probably his saddest tune "Deserted Charlie Brown; classic Linus and Lucy updated for the 70s; and several of the eponymous "You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown" tunes. There are bonus tracks for "Joe Cool," alternate takes of songs like "Blue Charlie Brown" and a bonus of "African Sleigh Ride."
In addition to the composer's piano playing, guitar and vocals, the maestro's cabinet (band) is comprised of legends who lent their talents for this wonderful campaign. The music will get you in a great mood for any election. The album was remixed at Bones and Knives by Terry Carleton, and restored and mastered by Vinson Hudson, and produced by Sean Mendelson and Jason Mendelson. The album is available on CD, Vinyl, and digital.
