Half the compositions that make up Here's to You appear on Guaraldi's 1964 television soundtrack A Boy Named Charlie Brown. It's actually Guaraldi's original trio you hear during the opening 50 seconds of \"Linus and Lucy,\" until Benoit's threesome splices in its own improvisation. A bit brief at 42 minutes, the package is nevertheless nicely understated and affectionately played. Some listeners would rather not have a holiday selection at the album's midpoint (\"Christmas Time is Here,\" with harmonies by gospel act Take 6), but the intrusion is minor. Other guests include Chris Botti (adding a tasteful muted trumpet to a Benoit composition, \"Linus Tells Charlie\"), Michael Brecker (tenor sax on the swinging \"Freda\"), and Al Jarreau on the concluding \"Happiness.\" --Terry Wood\n\nProduct description\n\nBenoit,David ~ Here's To You Charlie Brown-50\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 731454363723\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0731454363723\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e MFR731454363723#VG\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e english\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44679463305475,"sku":"A5-BKT5-ST9Q","price":5.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/71oH92EmCxL.jpg?v=1707084949","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/heres-to-you-charlie-brown-50-great-years","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
