For many Christmas will always be "White Christmas" or chestnuts on a fire...for me it will always be "Linus and Lucy". |

| Ahnyer_Keester (Chicago Il) | Posted: Jan 08, 2013 - 11:57 That has got to be one of the best segues I've ever heard! Bohemian Rhapsody to Cast Your Fate to the Wind. Would have never thought of it in a million years but it worked perfectly! Well done Bill. |
| southcoastsounds (East Sussex, UK) | Posted: Dec 13, 2012 - 08:54 I bought the de-jazzified version by Sounds Orchestral in 1965 - one of the first singles I bought. Great to hear it again - and even better to hear the original here |

Yeah, I had this weird sense of deja vu just now. Looked at the song that was playing and realized why. Nice! I'll have to look up some of Guaraldi's other music. |
| Misterfixit (Nashville) | Posted: Mar 30, 2012 - 14:22 Damn! Every single time I hear this I think of the Luscious Edith Rink ... 2400 S Street, SE, Washington, DC. Sighhhhhhh she broke my heart. Hope you and that motocycle guy are still happy (see my previous posts here). |
| Sloggydog (UK) | Posted: Feb 27, 2012 - 22:13 This would make an excellent bedfellow with R.E.M.'s Winged Mammal Theme and it would keep with the narrative in my head which is about a flying whale who dives in and out of the sea in a series of spectacular twists and turns. |

I hope you are still enjoying this album ... What was the name of that guy who stole you away from me in 1966? Never mind.

| Byronape (Snorkeling in the River Styx) | Posted: Jul 22, 2011 - 22:19 It's songs like this that make me wish I learned how to play the piano. This, and Jill Barber's "Measures and Scales", but that one for whole different reasons. |
| bachbeet | Posted: Jul 21, 2011 - 18:22 Great song. I have it from another album of his. |

It's a shame, really, but I hope it put food on your table and a roof over your head. The accusation that he did it for the money is an insult to his artistic intent and integrity. Maybe he played in this style because he enjoyed it. Not everyone has to make bleeding-edge, culturally challenging music or artwork. Some artists will gladly paint murals in schools and hospitals their whole career, and there is absolutely no "shame" in that. |

SparkyMarky's "I just don't get it" comment notwithstanding, Jazz has always been bigger in Europe than in its home, the U.S.A. As for this tune, I know it's "real" jazz because, listen after listen after listen, it never gets stale or old. |

I don't care that he has apparently never heard a piece of music he didn't love (weird, but whatever), I just want to see him put a little thought into his comments like the rest of us. Like someone else told him in a different song thread, "English has a great vocabulary- try getting to know it sometime!" I think I'm going to cautiously side with ce on this one. While I might agree that unbridled optimism ("I love everything!") can be as tiresome as relentless negativity (my old buddy physicsgenius or excelsior), still we're talking about music. It's why we're all here. So, if given a choice between romeotuma's rapturous monotony or any of the sucko-barfo mavens, and lord knows there seem to be enough of them, I'll give the nod to romeo every time. Yeah, we'd all like some more thoughtful commentary, but consider the alternative. It's all around you. |
