Vince Guaraldi Lived up the valley from me, and on fair Mill Valley days, he would open the windows and let the wonderful music spill out while he was playing

For a long time, I thought he was just riffing on Cast your Fate to the Wind, then Peanuts splashed and I went, “Ohhh”.

About the same time, he scored an electric harpsichord and REALLY started filling the valley up with cool music.
