Schroeder – Linus & Lucy (US 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1988

To me the Peanuts gang is always associated with the Holiday Season, so here is a little something to keep you dancing all the way into the New Year.

“Linus and Lucy” is a popular instrumental jazz standard written by American jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi, appearing in many Peanuts animated specials. Named for the two fictional siblings Linus and Lucy van Pelt, it gained its greatest exposure as part of the A Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack. It is one of the most recognizable pieces by Guaraldi and has gained status as the signature melody of the Peanuts franchise.

In 1988, a Electro cover version was produced and arranged by Tom Bennett Davis under the alias of Schroeder. It contains edits by Carlos Berrios and Omar Santana. The record was released on the Pow Wow Records label.

The song did not chart.
