Vince Guaraldi was the brilliant composer and pianist behind the Peanuts cartoons.
It was quite controversial to use modern jazz in a kid's cartoon, networks hated it, but introduced many kids to jazz.
He was only 46 when he died in 1976, but left such a legacy!

“Take Five” by Dave Brubeck Quartet was recorded 67 years ago today.
Two years later it became a surprise hit and the biggest-selling jazz single ever.

Seeing the Pink Panther main theme performed live is unreal. Henry Mancini conducting, Plas Johnson on sax like the original recording, and the Terry Gibbs Band locking in behind him.
Film music history happening in real time.

Warren Buffet said he can fix the deficit in 5 minutes. He’d pass a law that every time there’s a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress aren’t eligible for re election.
