"Great Pumpkin Waltz" is one of my favorite of the Guaraldi Peanuts specials songs. By coincidence, I've just been rereading Schulz and Peanuts, the Schulz bio that came out a few years ago. Charles Schulz didn't even like jazz, but had the savvy to see that Guaraldi's music fit the mood for the Christmas special he was working on with Lee Mendhelson and Bill Melendez, and it just kind of took off from there.
