Curiosities #1: A Charlie Brown Christmas Soundtrack
So here's a "curiosity" (say the word in a scouse accent - it sounds better). The soundtrack album form the 1965 animated feature A Charlie Brown Christmas, by jazz composer Vince Guaraldi.
The feature itself explores the over-commercialisation of Christmas, and is even credited in some quarters with the stigmatisation of artificial Christmas trees. Powerful shit, eh? Not very seasonal right now I know - but if I put this up at Christmas it wouldn't be a curiosity, would it?
The soundtrack is 40 minutes long, and it's a real mood swinger. Why not stick it on in your lunch hour? It's guaranteed to change your day, and you'll still have time for a sandwich.

Look out for more "curiosities" in the coming weeks - unless you're a cat that is. And don't forget to work on that accent.
