These smooth, jazzy grooves are tunes that you can enjoy and ignore at the same time.

I love many different types of music, and listen to varied playlists all of the time. When I am in heads down mode trying knock out work though, I tend to like smooth, jazzy grooves. Vince Guaraldi is easily my favorite artist in that genre.

Growing up I loved all of the Peanuts cartoons and had not idea that Guaraldi was the composer for those soundtracks.  Fast-forward to adult years and I am hooked on every single thing he recorded, but as a solo artist and also with his trio.

I encourage anyone to give some of these great tunes a shot, or just listen to this whole playlist from start to finish.  It is a great sampler of some of the great tunes that Guaraldi brought to life.
