But as some reviewers here point out, this is certainly not the CD to start with if you're new to this music. I'm making my own compilation of Guaraldi's Peanuts music, so this CD is valuable to me for providing some tracks I didn't have, especially since there is not a lot more of this music on the market other than "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" and "A Charlie Brown ...

We like this disc more than the Charlie Brown Christmas one. Rating:  - Yuk!Don't waste your money. I would send it back but my dad threw it away. Browse for similar items by category:
