Vince Guaraldi - Great Pumpkin Waltz (It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966, dir. Bill Melendez)
“Each year, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch that he thinks is the most sincere. He’s gotta pick this one. He’s got to. I don’t see how a pumpkin patch can be more sincere than this one. You can look around and there’s not a sign of hypocrisy. Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see.”
A small bit of Charles Schulz’s process. I’ve never seen much of this, especially from so early in the strip, so this is an excellent find.
Awesome! This is probably my favorite period of the strip too.
