Show Notes
"Christmas Time Is Here" is a popular Christmas song written for the 1965 TV special A Charlie Brown Christmas, One of the very first animated Christmas special produced for network TV in the United States, Since the song had become a hit, it was then released on the album A Charlie Brown Christmas as two tracks: an instrumental version by the Vince Guaraldi Trio and a vocal version as sung by the cast of the television special. This is simply my tribute to a great songwriter and musician, Mr. Vince Guaraldi. I play all the instruments and sing all the parts on the track.
